“I tried to make my husband make his daughter like me. After ten years of failed attempts, I decided to make myself change.”
“Little bits of things make me do it; — perhaps a word that I said and ought not to have said ten years ago; — the most ordinary little mistakes, even my own past thoughts to myself about the merest trifles. They are always making me shiver.”
“I'm trying to make myself invisible.""That's an odd thing to attempt.”
“None of them will believe me. I drop any attempt to explain myself and just gracefully accept that people are going to make assumptions and that the more I argue, the more it’ll look like I’m trying to hide something.”
“And for the last ten or so years of my life, whenever my father was in the house, I've learned how to make myself scarce.”
“I usually make up my mind about a man in ten seconds, and I very rarely change it.”
