Tina Seskis Quotes

It Was The Scale, The Extremity Of Things Here That Made An Impression On Her: The Two Beds In Their Double Room That Could Comfortably Sleep Three People Each; The Throaty Clunking Of The Machine Down The Corridor That Ejected Fat Glinting Ice Cubes, Tumbling Like Coins From A Jackpotting Fruit Machine; The Toothache Temperature Of The Cokes From The Mini Bar (she Had Never Known Drinks To Be So Cold); The Improbable Proportions Of The Cars On The Freeway; The Sleek Gleefulness Of The Morning TV Presenters With Drawls So Sassy They Sounded Put On; The Enormity Of The Breakfasts And The People Who Ate Them. America Seemed Souped-up To JoAnne, As Though It Had To Be Bigger, Better, Colder, Hotter, Cheerier, Louder, Just All-round "er" Than Everywhere Else.
