“I want to live till I die. No more, no less.”
Fierce Invalids Home from Hot Climates (2000)
“I want to live till I die. No more, no less.”
“The more I like me, the less I want to pretend to be other people.”
“The more I want to get something done, the less I call it work.”

Context: Complete freedom meant — no one knew. It was most readily defined in the negative: not this gap between the heaven promised in the new advertisements and the everyday satisfactions I can buy. Not the sense that when I leave my work for my family, and bring my family to a Sunday in the park, my leisure feels like work. Not this mad conviction that I’m a stranger in my own home town, that at work I feel like a machine, that in the park I feel like an advertisement, that at home I feel like a tourist.
“I would put my pilot out on the Internet in a heartbeat. Want five more? Come buy the boxed set.”
