Quick Stop

Quote of the Day:

"Sara was, after all, a very nice lady, even though no female I've ever known has wanted to be called either of those things. Particularly in Los Angeles, where there were only two ages of people, young and pretending to be young."*

I'll take "nice" and "lady"... but I'd put myself in a category different than the last of the above two, and that would be "refusing to be old".

There is a difference between pretending to be young and refusing to be old. The former is a state of mind; the latter is when your brain has not yet caught up with the rest of you.
