a steady sweat, your heart fluttering indelicately, a solid ache
perforating your calves. This is called work, what you will come to know,
eventually and simply, as movement, as all the evidence you need to make
your way. Forget where you were. That story is no longer true.

All that had happened and would happen was meant to be. Everything happens as it is meant to be. — Sigrid Undset

I never had a month or so go by where I haven't had a job, but you always worry that someone will turn off the tap. — Dean Norris
