“Nice distinctions are troublesome. It is so much easier to say that a thing is black, than to discriminate the particular shade of brown, blue, or green, to which it really belongs.

I don't have to like circumstances as they are, but I have to accept them and that's where I always seem to get thrown, when I try to will my way instead of accept things the way they are.” ThinkingWayTryingWellsI CanSeemsTermDealsAcceptingWillingCircumstancesEasierMy WayThrownAccepting Things Author:Matt Dillon
“I think I meant that, given the circumstances of my childhood, I had the illusion that it's easier to be alone. To have your relationships be casual and also to pose as a solitary person, because it was more romantic. You know, I was raised on the idea of the ramblin' man and the loner.” ThinkingKnowsMenPersonsIdeasGivenChildhoodCircumstancesEasierIllusionRaisedSolitaryCasualLoner Author:Steve Martin
