From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2018-01-27:

"Can we live there one day?" I ask my boyfriend, and he says yes. He always agrees when I ask him things like this--he'll say of course or okay and I won't say any more about it, but he knows I don't really want to live with him in a big fancy house, that the only way we pull it off at all is by surrounding ourselves with disabled people and drunks, attaching our lives to the sad, impermanent lives of others." - Mary Miller, from her short story Dirty.
