There are songs to sing, there are feelings to feel, there are thoughts to think. That makes three things, and you can’t do three things at the same time. The singing is easy, syrup in my mouth, and the thinking comes with the tune, so that leaves only the feelings. Am I right or am I right? I can sing the singing. I can think the thinking. But you’re not going to catch me feeling the feeling. No, sir.

when I found my first grey hair I was slightly put out, in a “who gave you permission to change colour” kind of way, but now I’m rather fascinated as to what it’s going to do next and what pattern it will take. (if I look hard, I can usually find the odd silver hair around my temples or above my ears. I tend to dispose of any that show up in my parting; I think that is less chic, but I may change my mind.) obviously I’ve always wanted to go grey in the style of Susan Sontag.

“I begin, about 12, with writing materials, write a few lines, then get a glass of water — another line or so — smoke a cigarette — another line — play with the kitten — and then break for a cup of tea. But somehow, a book does get written.”
--Ethel Lina White on her writing process
