" When were in the prence of another person, there Is always a masks, even if that mask is our face. There is no escaping it. And so the vast majority of what we say to each other, whether it is to our spouses, our family, our confessor, or perfect strangers, amounts to chitchat all the same.
Or at best, a crack audition for that juiciest of all parts were literally dying to play: ourselves..
But alone. Fuckin A- ALONE
were genius. "
