You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-You-Are? You're chicken. You've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say "Okay, life's a fact." People DO fall in love. People DO belong to each other. Because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness. You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing," and you're terrified somebody's gonna stick you in a cage! Well baby, you're already in that cage -- you built it yourself. And it's not bounded on the west by Tulip Texas or on the east by Somali Land; it's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run you just end up running into yourself.-Paul Varjak Breakfast at Tiffany's
