Something that will either change your life for the better, or end it forever. Chaos. ~James Michael
#quotes #james-michael

And then, lo and behold, the cup topples and even before it lands, I tell myself, "Told me so!" Not to spell out, or spill out, one of the metaphors of my life, but I always do the stupid thing and then I do it again. I never learn. ~Patricia Marx
