Lady Quotes
You talk to kids who don't drink, and 65 percent of kids say they don't drink because their parents disapprove. Not because their peers didn't approve, or because Shaquille O'Neal didn't approve, or the governor and first lady didn't approve. We're background noise. It's the parents who can really bring about change.

You see her extreme ... pain about leaving her family for work, her husband wanting her to be Sadie, Sadie, married lady, and her wanting to go to work for the Party and the state. You have to admire the fact that she made a stand for what she needed to do as a human being, and just the degree of service out there.

You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book(Lady Chatterley, for instance), or you take a trip, or you talk with Richard, and you discover that you are not living, that you are hibernating. The symptoms of hibernating are easily detectable: first, restlessness. The second symptom(when hibernating becomes dangerous and might degenerate into death): absence of pleasure. That is all. It appears like an innocuous illness. Monotony, boredom, death. Millions live like this(or die like this) without knowing it. They work in offices. They drive a car. They picnic with their families. They raise children. And then some shock treatment takes place, a person, a book, a song, and it awakens them and saves them from death.
