1 " I will say that meeting him was like walking out of a dark wood. He's not perfect and I'm not perfect and we have our hard times but I remember moving towards him through Terminal 4 and it was like emerging from the cold and into the sun.Like waking up from the bad dream that was my life before him.And all the confusion and fear and self-hatred that I'd always felt in the presence of other people...I was shedding it like a skin.The spell had ended.And I remember thinking: everything is possible.If this is possible, anything is possible. "
― Annie Baker , John
2 " I went mad and then I was 45, which was older than I thought I'd ever be, and then I was50, which was older than I thought I'd ever be when I was 45, and then on the night of my57th birthday I went blind and I stood naked in the middle of my bedroom and all of asudden I was at the center of the universe, facing out. No more trying to get in anyoneelse's head. Oh, what does she think of me? What does that man bagging my groceriesthink of--nope. It's just me! Alone in the universe! Standing in the center of my own life.I can't even look in a mirror. It's just me and my thoughts and sometimes I have nothoughts at all. Sometimes I just lie in bed in the morning and think about nothing.Imagine that.Before you take a break, imagine that.Sitting in the center of your own life with no thoughts at all about what other people arethinking.They can think whatever they like.You can all think whatever you like about me.
