Quote by Jaine Diamond

“His gaze holds mine for way, way longer than common decency requires. I am in no way prepared for this. I’m here to meet a grouchy seventy something woman, not the Hottest Bartender in the Galaxy. I don’t even have makeup on.”

“Há uma tendência moderna, agora que o mundo acalmou, ganhou juízo, de acharmos que o que lá vai, lá vai, é impossível que se repita, eram outros tempos, e portanto quem busca paz de espírito conclui que aconteceu e não acontece mais, eram só aqueles alemães naquela altura, foi uma coincidência Hitler ter à disposição tanta gente igual a ele, facilitou imenso.”

“The Dashwoods came here from England in the 1930s and never moved." "Then a young man from India came into their lives and lived here in the 1940s. Can you imagine what his life here might have been like? My mother tells stories of when she moved here forty years ago, and even that seems wildly brave to me sometimes. The fact that my parents chose to leave their home and come to a place where they were so different from everyone. I can't imagine leaving California ever.”

“Do you come from a family of cooks?" I ask as I rasp the cheese against the prickly grater, trying to distract myself from the familiar smells and sounds. "Kind of. My grandma used to be an amazing cook. Her mother had emigrated from Alsace-Lorraine, so she knew how to make all of these incredible French-German dishes---curly endive salad with bacon dressing, sausages with sauerkraut, green bean stew with potatoes and bacon. When I'd come to visit for lunch, she'd make me radish sandwiches on white bread with salt and butter." "Sounds like the answer is yes, then." "Not exactly. That was my dad's mom. My mom's mom stored cereal and wine in her oven.”

“Mars will not be our new home; it will be our new hotel! Because for a new place to be our own home, we need to see the things we used to see: An autumn lake, a bird singing in the misty morning or even desert camels walking in the sunset!”
