I sometimes wondered why I even answered the phone, but I guess I always had the hope that it would be someone else, some other way of life calling for me.

About This Quote

Some people say that they don’t answer their phone because they want to avoid the calls. However, I don’t think that’s true. If you don’t pick up the phone because you do not want to talk to people, then that means you only answer the phone when you are forced to do so, or when someone is already on the line. There’s a big difference between answering and answering because you want to.
