I keep trying to perfect my mother's meatloaf recipe. I will never get it perfect, but I'm getting closer.

I'm always fascinated by the way memory diffuses fact.

We did exactly what everybody in the country did, watching it. You entered this state of sort of denials. You think, well, it must have been a tragic accident by an amateur pilot. And then you see the next plane coming.
