“There are a lot of things we choose not to see. Doesn't mean they aren't there, even if we wish they weren't. --Charlie”

“There are lots of things we choose not to see. Doesn't mean they aren't there, even if we wish they weren't.”

“Gossip is one thing, hurtful gossip is completely another, and even in high school we weren't THAT mean.”

“We think we know that chimpanzees are higher animals and earthworms are lower, we think we've always known what that means, and we think evolution makes it even clearer. But it doesn't. It is by no means clear that it means anything at all. Or if it means anything, it means so many different things to be misleading, even pernicious.”

“I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons, and maybe we'll never know most of them, but even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there, we can still do things, and try to feel okay about them.”

“But why would it matter? We aren't ... or...uh...weren't ..." Which is it, Jess? "Aren't" or "weren't"? Present or past tense? Now or then? "We haven't been talking to each other." Past imperfect tense. How appropriate.”
