Lionel Shriver Quotes

This Pervasive Craving To Be Recognized As Special Amounted To An Abdication Of Power, An Outsourcing Of Your Core Responsibilities.

I Had Found That "feeling Special" Was A Private Experience, And No One Else's Projected Fascination Could Substitute For Quiet Absorption In Your Own Life.
