Lincoln Fenn

At every level, from the microcellular to the psychological, exercise not only wards off the ill effects of chronic stress; it can also reverse them. Studies show that if researchers exercise rats that have been chronically stressed, that activity makes the hippocampus grow back to its preshriveled state.

When you say you feel less stressed out after you go for a swim, or even a fast walk, you are. — John Ratey

I slide into the van, my sneakers crunching into a crumpled pile of magazines, an empty Dunkin' Donuts coffee cup, various Poland Spring and Gatorade bottles, and lots of unidentifiable snack wrappers. Alice and her Bug are evidently still at work.
"A surprise, for me?" I ask, intrigued.
"Well, it's for me, but you too, kind of. I mean, it's something I want you to see."

I laugh. "Okay. Just checking. — Huntley Fitzpatrick

I had you living in my life and I was alive. — Francesca Lia Block

but that motherfucker never bedded a girl from
West Chester
and survived

that one
and she tasted like crack

was if I was ever hungry

was making rest at the corners of her mouth

as is the case with most of them
then again I can't remember
how many donuts I ate this morning
or how many beers I'll drink tonight,
tomorrow — Dave Matthes

Olive's private view is that life depends on what she thinks of as "big bursts" and "little bursts."

Tricky business, really. — Elizabeth Strout

He was skinning a bear. I was terrified at first, because the corpse resembled a naked man quartered between two trees. He'd created a deadfall trap over some big talus blocks and the bear had fallen in. He used the skin for something and jerked the meat.

are the ever-expanding
universe
to me. — Kate DiCamillo

Donuts. Is there anything they can't do? — Matt Groening

I howl at the roof like a hotted-up bomb doing donuts, full of screeches. I howl like an air-raid siren, my arms stretched out wide. Howls are like songs. They can't be summoned; they just happen. They come from a place that I barely understand. And then something else climbs to the surface, something black and jagged, something from the deep. Imagine all your worse feelings surfacing. Imagine coughing up razor blades. Imagine not being able to stop the pain from coming out, and not knowing when it's going to end. — Leanne Hall

God bless Dunkin' Donuts. — Lauren Oliver

If America runs on Dunkin', do I detect a slight limp? — Josh Stern

No one chooses to become a banker. It just happens, like cancer, and then you try to live with it for as long as you can. After thirteen years in the industry, I was damn near terminal.

Weekends off. 401K vesting. Medical insurance that I had to have because they were turning me into a half-blind hunchback with diabetes. The — Jeremy Robert Johnson
