“For a few minutes, everything is so cute that the mind reels.... And then, believe it or not, things get worse. So I shot myself.”
“He's so cute, I can't help myself.”
“You’re really cute, Midori,” I corrected myself.“What do you mean really cute?”“So cute the mountains crumble and the oceans dry up.”
“When things are at their blackest, I say to myself, 'Cheer up, things could be worse.' And sure enough, they get worse.”
“If you set to work to believe everything, you will tire out the believing-muscles of your mind, and then you'll be so weak you won't be able to believe the simplest true things.”
“For better or worse, there are few things so disarming as one who laughs well at her own expense.”
