“I like that Sarah Palin. She looks like the flight attendant who won't give you a second can of Pepsi ... She looks like the nurse who weighs you and then makes you sit alone in your underwear for 20 minutes ... She looks like a real estate agent whose picture you see on the bus stop bench ... She looks like the hygienist who makes you feel guilty about not flossing ... She looks like the relieved mom in a Tide commercial.” GivingFeelsLooksRealMinutesMomFlightGuiltyAgentsBusNurseTidesEstatesUnderwearBenchesRelievedPalinPepsiBus StopsEstate AgentsFlight AttendantFlossing Author:David Letterman
“I resolve to venture into the city on my own. I look at maps in the library—subway maps, bus maps, and regular maps—and try to memorize them. I’m afraid of getting lost; no, I’m afraid of sinking into the city as in a quicksand, afraid of getting sucked into something I can never escape.” TryingLooksI CanLostMy OwnCitiesLibraryMapsResolveBusVentureSinkingSubwayGetting LostQuicksand Author:Deborah Feldman
