“ I find having your own car is like a passport to the world. ”
I liked having some time to myself. Our family was such a close one, you could get smothered. Of course, we didn't always agree with one another. Sometimes I quarreled with my brother and sisters, but I couldn't remember hating anyone for more than five minutes.
~ Gloria Whelan
People long to go backward in their imagination as well as forward. We don't wish simply to exist forever in some future, we wish to have existed in some distant past.
I couldn’t live with myself if I thought nothing could get better.
Even our recreation was scheduled. There was no time to look for birds or wander into the nearby woods. We were put into teams and sent into violent pursuit of a helpless ball.
