Oh you, my generation! - we were a lovely lot! Sharp minds- arguing all the time and brittle bodies and even more brittle laughter- and all the time knowing that we were growing up to die.

About This Quote

I have been growing up all my life and I have been dying from the time I was born. Every day is a new beginning and a new chance to start all over again. I have a new plan, a new way of living and a new way of thinking about things. I have changed for the better and have grown up into a better person.
