Curtis Sittenfeld Quotes
I Noticed Then That The Red-haired Woman Was Buying The Food You Eat When You Live Alone: A Box Of Cereal, A Few Apples, A Plastic Container Of Plain Yogurt ... With An Abrupt Clarity, I Saw How I Had Been Launched Into Another Category. I Had Been The Red-haired Woman; For A Decade Of My Adult Life, I Had Bought Cereal And Yogurt, I'd Stood Near Couples And Watched Them Nuzzle, And Now I Was Part Of Such A Couple. And I Would Not Be Launched Back, I Was Certain. But I Recognized Her Life, I Knew It So Well! I Wanted To Clasp Her Freckled Hand, To Say To Her
surely We Understood Some Shared Code (or Surely Not, Surely She'd Have Thought Me Preposterous)
It's Good On The Other Side, But It's Good On Your Side Too. Enjoy It There. The Loneliness Is Harder And The Loneliness Is The Biggest Part; But Some Things Are Easier.
