“I just thought that one day, somehow... my world would end up looking just like the game posters I saw. I thought that eventually, the world would turn fun and bright. But the reality is... things would only get worse. More and more people wanted a crumb from the cookie. Each person's share just got smaller and smaller. And then one day I finally realized that no one in this town had to luxury to save anyone else. Even if I wait... the fun and bright game will never come. And even if we try to struggle against the pain, our stomachs will never be full. There's no other choice. I have to change this messed-up reality.”

“Now I don't know why, but Morrissey had always hated Joy Division. Maybe Rob got it right when after a lively debate as the cameras were turned off he turned to Morrissey and said, 'The trouble with you, Morrissey, is that you've never had the guts to kill yourself like Ian.

“What to wear on a Minnesota farm? The older farmers I know wear brown polyester jumpsuits, like factory workers. The younger ones wear jeans, but the forecast was for ninety-five degrees with heavy humidity. The wardrobe of Quaker ladies in their middle years runs to denim skirts and hiking boots. This outfit had worked fine for me in England. But one of my jobs in Minnesota will be to climb onto the industrial cuisinart in the hay barn and mix fifty-pound bags of nutritional supplement and corn into blades as big as my body. Getting a skirt caught in that thing would be bad news for Betty Crocker.”
