When you think about it, giving up your 'real' personality is a small price to pay for the richness of 'living happily ever after' with an actual man!
From Lynda Barry
The minute you understand racism, you're responsible for being racist. It's like eating from the tree of knowledge.
I am about as detailed as a shadow.
Playing and fun are not the same thing, though when we grow up we may forget that and find ourselves mixing up playing with happiness. There can be a kind of amnesia about the seriousness of playing, especially when we played by ourselves.
The happy ending is hardly important, though we may be glad it's there. The real joy is knowing that if you felt the trouble in the story, your kingdom isn't dead.
If I had had me for a student I would have thrown me out of class immediately.
I wasn't afraid to be laughed at or be loud.
I listen like mad to any conversation taking place next to me just trying to hear why this is funny. Women's restrooms are especially great. I wash my hands twice waiting for people to come in and start talking.
I go to work the minute I open my eyes.
I do dumb stuff, like playing my favorite dumb Barry White song and lip-synching into the mirror so it looks like his voice is coming out of my mouth.
