1 " Tears are part of the leeway of the common areas of a hospital, since so many have to do their crying away from the patient's bed. You don't care who sees you cry in the lobby: it was port of entry for all the sorrows, and one gave up all one's previous citizenship at the border. "
― Paul Monette , Borrowed Time: An AIDS Memoir
2 " Managers don't have to cook the books to manipulate earnings they often have all the power they need in the leeway built into accounting rules. "
3 " Never forget that the truest luxury is imagination, and that being a writer gives you the leeway to exploit all of the imagination's curious intricacies, to be what you were, what you are, what you will be, and what everyone else is or was or will be, too. "
