Robert Louis Stevenson

Each has his own tree of ancestors, but at the top of all sits Probably Arboreal.

All speech, written or spoken, is a dead language, until it finds a willing and prepared hearer.

Every man has a sane spot somewhere.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

I really like Jeff Lewis and 'Flipping Out' and 'Interior Therapy.' I don't know why I'm obsessed with American real estate and renovation.
