Singles bar talk: "How's your work?" "It pays." "Good.  Then we won't have to talk about it."

--Life During Wartime

Boy to his mother (after finding out she lied to him about his father being dead): "Fuck you, bitch!"--ibid.

"Can you forget and not forgive?"--ibid.

"China is the future.  We're finished.  It's a matter of time"--ibid.


    Dreamed of the German movie Effi Briest; meeting H.G. Wells.


    Dinner was salmon.


    Saw Todd Solondz' Life During Wartime at the Cumberland. (It's a sequel to his Happiness, but with all the roles recast!) Solondz makes geek movies, and his world is disquieting but oddly believable.
