Favorite Quote 2 by Lauren Graham

“Over and over in the play, my character says, “I’m thirty-two years old,” as if that should explain everything wrong in her life. I don’t know what it’s like to be thirty-two, but I can imagine. I imagine she means she’s stuck in an in-between time, she’s at an age that isn’t a milestone, but more of a no-man’s-land, an age where she’s feeling like her hopes are fading.”

– Lauren Graham

Like clouds on an overcast day, sometimes we have to face the fact that what happens to us in life isn’t controllable, and if we wait a while, don’t take it personally, and decide to enjoy ourselves anyway, the sky will eventually clear up.”
