“Unless you're trying to make a pile of bread crumbs to find your way home, you should probably give that roll a break.”

“unless you're the lead dog the view never changes...mercy out does justice every time:always find your way back home/”

“...if you are one tardy away from missing out on a big competition, you should probably make your coffee at home.”

“For heartsickness of the unending variety, befriend a dove. Do not catch it, not even so that you can set it free. Just get down on the ground with bread crumbs on your chest and wait for it to find you interesting.”

“Finding your way doesn't mean you always know where you're going. It's knowing how to find your way back home that's important.”

“You never know when you might come home and find Mam sitting by the fire chatting with a woman and a child, strangers. Always a woman and child. Mam finds them wandering the streets and if they ask, Could you spare a few pennies, miss? her heart breaks. She never has money so she invites them home for tea and a bit of fried bread and if it's a bad night she'll let them sleep by the fire on a pile of rags in the corner. The bread she gives them always means less for us and if we complain she says there are always people worse off and we can surely spare a little from what we have.”
