But I have never had the privilege of unhappiness in Happy Valley. California is about the good life. So a bad life there seems so much worse than a bad life anywhere else.

Paul Newman quote: "When you see the right thing to do, you'd better do it."
When you see the right thing to do, you'd better do it. Paul Newman
Carlo is safe because I don't really love him that much. If he stopped wanting me around one day, it wouldn't be so terrible. I wouldn't die. Hallie, I realize how that sounds. I feel small and ridiculous and hemmed in on every side by the need to be safe. All I want is to be like you, to walk into a country of chickens and land mines and call that home, and have it be home. How do you just charge ahead, always doing the right thing, even if you have to do it alone with people staring? Barbara Kingsolver
Winston Churchill quote: "We can always count on the Americans to do the right thing,..."
We can always count on the Americans to do the right thing, after they have exhausted all the other possibilities. Winston Churchill
