“Sometimes when Australians go overseas, it's as though the "Aussie" is refined out of them. I don't know why. It's never happened to me, because I'm really proud of it. I'm not embarrassed about where I'm from or who I am any more. I know who I am. I don't fit in everywhere, but I know where I do fit in.” KnowsSometimesHappenedProudFitWho I AmEmbarrassedRefinedAussies Author:Rachael Taylor

“If I'm not mistaken, I believe it was written beforehand. And it just happened in rehearsals Basically giving each person their vocal-line and I ended up getting that line!

“That dreadful alligator attack in Orlando would never have happened if Disney had put up real warning signs, like other Florida resorts do.

“The only time this happened to me before was in Jil Sander in Berlin where they said, "We have nothing that will fit you." I said, "Yes, you do." And I found something great. This happens to me in Paris again and again and again. They don't carry anything over size 40 which is nothing, because I wear a size 42 or 44 but that's hard to find in Paris among the designer clothes.

“That's what the left is always doing. They have an ideal, and they want people to conform to it. When people don't conform to it, they end up being beaten into the mold. And beaten sometimes hard enough so that if they don't fit, then they kill them. That's what happened in the Soviet Union and China.” PeopleIfsWantEndsSometimesHardEnoughLeftHappenedFitIdealsUnionsChinaSovietBeatenConformSoviet UnionMold Author:Mark Helprin
“There is never a sudden revelation, a complete and tidy explanation for why it happened, or why it ends, or why or who you are. You want one and I want one, but there isn't one. It comes in bits and pieces, and you stitch them together wherever they fit, and when you are done you hold yourself up, and still there are holes and you are a rag doll, invented, imperfect. And yet you are all that you have, so you must be enough. There is no other way.” WayWantStillsEndsDoneEnoughTogetherBitsPiecesHappenedFitWho You AreHolesExplanationRevelationsImperfectDollsRagsTidyStitchesBits And Pieces Author:Marya Hornbacher
