Laurie Colwin Quotes

Woe To Those Who Get What They Desire. Fulfillment Leaves An Empty Space Where Your Old Self Used To Be, The Self That Pines And Broods And Reflects. You Furnish A Dream House In Your Imagination, But How Startling And Final When That Dream House Is Your Own Address. What Is Left To You? Surrounded By What You Wanted, You Feel A Sense Of Amputation. The Feelings You Were Used To Abiding With Are Useless. The Conditions You Established For Your Happiness Are Met. That Youthful Light-headed Feeling Whose Sharp Side Is Much Like Hunger Is Of No More Use To You.
