There is no shortage of good days. It is good lives that are hard to come by. A life of good days lived in the senses is not enough.

Who would call a day spent reading a good day? But a life spent reading -- that is a good life.

I have a feeling that I make a very good friend, and I'm a good mother, and a good sister, and a good citizen. I am involved in life itself - all of it. And I have a lot of energy and a lot of nerve.
