It was about a girl who saves up money for a prom dress, but at the last minute she says, "It's only clothes," and buys war bonds instead. The play was a big success, and my whole school pledged to buy war bonds, which should have made me happy. But it gave me a queer feeling; it's easy to write propaganda when everyone agrees with you. Do you understand? I think I'd rather bake cookies; it feels more honest.
Your friend,
Lulu

Unhappy about the news, Tommy objects to Carolyn moving in with Cindy.

"You don't have flashlights?" Jessup said. "Jeeze! A cylinder, like, with batteries inside it, and a light bulb behind glass at one end--"

Jessup hooted. "You think we don't have pencils?"
"You think we don't have flashlights?" Tommy snapped. "That's just American dialect. In the English language they're called torches."

“Tomo y obligo
No renunciaré, no,
a nombrar esta belleza
cuando esté sostenida con el corazón,
cuando tenga la certeza
de que no es un ornamento
o instrumento para hablar sólo de lo humano
o de mí. El camino
que interseca, cruz de amor
donde se encuentra lo viviente. Por lo que es
y sé, y no sé y no sólo
aquello que le otorgo
Lo singular de mi conciencia no me arroga
privilegios de saber,
dictamen sobre el otro
y disponer como si acaso no existiera
tanto, tanto como yo
con el concierto. Enigma
transparente, retablo del Edén. Francisco
y Juan lo hicieron, tomo y
obligo. Fe al impulso
sostenido que en los versos hace un nido,
decirle no, ah error
consumado de la artista
Estar atenta, ser más fina cuando el rostro
del otro humano en su
belleza y su desdicha
se perfila aquí, en desamparo, es ese
su poder, como lo es
la trémula voz que en verso
teje la bienvenida, entre vos y yo.”

Tomo: ... Fujiko Mine from "Lupin III".
Kagura: WHAT!?”

“Tomorrow and plans for tomorrow can have no significance at all unless you are in full contact with the reality of the present, since it is in the present and only in the present that you live. There is no other reality than present reality, so that, even if one were to live for endless ages, to live for the future would be to miss the point everlastingly.”

“Tomorrow at 7, I shall be shot; but I am innocent of the crime of rebellion. I am going to die with a tranquil conscience.”
“Tomorrow at seven o'clock a strange phenomenon will occur: the earth is going to sit on the moon. This has also been written about by the noted English chemist Wellington. I confess, I felt troubled at heart when I pictured to myself the extraordinary delicacy and fragility of the moon. For the moon is usually made in Hamburg, and made quite poorly. I'm surprised England doesn't pay attention to this. It's made by a lame cooper, and one can see that the fool understands nothing about the moon. He used tarred rope and a quantity of cheap olive oil, and that's why there's a terrible stench all over the earth, so that you have to hold your nose. And that's why the moon itself is such a delicate sphere that people can't live on it, and now only noses live there. And for the same reason, we can't see our own noses, for they're all in the moon.”

“Tomorrow can be whatever I want it to be, which means for the first time in decades, I can look forward to it. Instead of being something to fear, it can be a promise I make myself. A chance to be braver or kinder, to make what was wrong right. To be better than I am today.”
