“The two most beautiful words in the English language are 'check enclosed.”

“Men”

“I don't know much about being a millionaire, but I'll bet I'd be darling at it.”

“That would be a good thing for them to cut on my tombstone: Wherever she went, including here, it was against her better judgment.”

“The best way to keep children at home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant, and let the air out of the tires.”

“Heterosexuality is not normal, it's just common.”

“We are all instruments pulling the bows across our own lungs. Windmills, still startling in every storm. Have you ever seen a newborn blinking at the light? I wanna do that every day. I wanna know what the kite called itself when it got away, when it escaped into the night...”

“Once through this ruined city did I pass”

“I wait on my fix:”

“I have brushed my teeth.”

“The Author To Her Book”

“Wildflowers can't be controlled, and neither can the girl with a soul boundless as the sky, and a spirit as free and wild as the ocean.”
