“The future… seems to me no unified dream but a mince pie, long in the baking, never quite done.”

“And oh my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
'Cause you're a dream to me

“Oh my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems.”

“Feminism has never been about getting a job for one woman. It's about making life more fair for women everywhere. It's not about a piece of the existing pie; there are too many of us for that. It's about baking a new pie.”

“You see, dream-lover of a lady, what shakes me to the core
Is the thought as you caress me, you've done this all before

“In the real world
as in dreams
nothing is quite
what it seems.
-The Book of Counted Sorrows”

“A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie. ”
