More From Penny Marshall

I think it's very pretty. can it be pretty if no one thinks it's pretty? i think it's pretty. if you're the only one? that's pretty pretty. and what about the boys? don't you want them to think you're pretty? i wouldn't want a boy to think i was pretty unless he was the kind of boy who thought i was pretty.
Boys Thinking Want
...fact was she knew more about them than she knew about herself, having never had the map to discover what she was like. could she sing? (was it nice to hear when she did?) was she pretty? was she a good friend? could she have been a loving mother? a faithful wife? have i got a sister and does she favor me? if my mother knew me would she like me?

Just me, just me sweet marie, she loves just me (she also loves maurice mcghee). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves louise dupree). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves the willow tree). no she don't, she loves just me! (poor, poor fool, why can't you see she can love others and still love thee.)
Sweet Tree Fool
She comes to me when she wants to be fed. and after i feed her -- guess what -- she's off to wherever she wants to be in the house, until the next time she gets hungry. she's smart enough to know she can't feed herself. she's actually a very smart cat. she gets loved. she gets adoration. she gets petted. she gets fed. and she doesn't have to do anything for it, which is why i say this cat's taught me more about women, than anything my whole life.
Smart Stupid Cat
India was the motherland of our race, and sanskrit the mother of europe's languages: she was the mother of our philosophy; mother, through the arabs, of much of our mathematics; mother, through the buddha, of the ideals embodied in christianity; mother, through the village community, of self-government and democracy. mother india is in many ways the mother of us all.
Mother Philosophy Race
She's a yellow pair of running shoes, a holey pair of jeans. she looks great in cheap sunglasses, she looks great in anything. she's, "i want a piece of chocolate cake; take me to a movie." she's a, "i can't find a thing to wear." now and then she's moody. she's a saturn with a sunroof with her brown hair blowing. she's a warm conversation i wouldn't miss for nothing. she's a fighter when she's mad and she's a lover when she's lovin'.

Jews are told that they should spend their lives helping others and when they make a lot of money it really bothers them. so, as a way to decrease their guilt, they try to help the underdog. they think, "why should i be rich when so many suffer?" they feel better once they run to the party that claims to defend the underdog, the democrats.
Running Party Feel Better
I’m the kind of person who likes to be by himself. to put a finer point on it, i’m the type of person who doesn’t find it painful to be alone. i find spending an hour or two every day running alone, not speaking to anyone, as well as four or five hours alone at my desk, to be neither difficult nor boring. i’ve had this tendency ever since i was young, when, given a choice, i much preferred reading books on my own or concentrating on listening to music over being with someone else. i could always think of things to do by myself.

We're free narnians, hwin and i, and i suppose, if you're running away to narnia you want to be one too. in that case hwin isn't your horse any longer. one might just as well say you're her human.

Does a man of sense run after every silly tale of hobgoblins or fairies, and canvass particularly the evidence? i never knew anyone, that examined and deliberated about nonsense who did not believe it before the end of his enquiries.
