"The scholars and intellectuals I met... always seem to hold a grudge against the world. They could never quite reconcile themselves to the idea that our lives don't follow the dramatic arc that a good author gives to a great literary character. Only in accidents of pure perfection does the world actually become a stage. And that, they seemed to think, was a shame."
~Ian Caldwell & Dustin Thompson - The Rule of Four
That's profound!
I'm soooo glad it's Friday! It feels like it's been a long week.

That is sooooo different from what I'm reading. Although what I'm reading is one of the best autobio's I think I have ever read.
This is why I always opt for more drama in my life.
Always.
