who comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the plane crash
with a gleam in her eye
It's interesting when people die: give us dirty laundry.”

General Quotes

“So she might die here—well, she could have died anywhere, so who cared where? That didn’t interest her. Life and mystery, that interested her. Perhaps she would have been keener on death and its processes if she’d had a religious side, but to her the religions of the ages were all mixed up in her head, a ceaselessly overworked agglutination of thousands of years of responding to the fears she didn’t possess.”
