Quote

I love the English language just like I love all American things. But I confess that I don't feel confident using complex sentences or big words, hence my famous minimally expressive style - all the gees and laconic answers to interviewers. Most of all, I have developed listening as an art form.

You can be just as faithful to a place or a thing as you can to a person. A place can really make your heart skip a beat, especially if you have to take a plane to get there.
Andy Warhol
Image
So many people have so many problems. When you think that health is wealth, you're so grateful just to be normal, more or less. Aren't you?
