Take "no" As An Encouragement To Redouble

You Walk Around Feeling Like A Teenager And Immortal Your Whole Life, And Suddenly There Isn't Much Time Left.

Always Retain The Ability To Walk Away, Without Sentimentality, From A Situation That Felt Unmanageable. That Was A Basic Rule Of Survival. Don't Lift A Finger For A Lost Cause.

I Abhor Crime Novels In Which The Main Character Can Behave However He Or She Pleases, Or Do Things That Normal People Do Not Do, Without Those Actions Having Social Consequences.

Consider This A Fair Warning.

Nobody Can Avoid Falling In Love. They Might Want To Deny It, But Friendship Is Probably The Most Common Form Of Love.
