“ I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.
“ It’s brilliant, being depressed; you can behave as badly as you like.
“ This is what you do on your very first day in Paris.
You get yourself some rain, not just a drizzle but honest-to-goodness rain.
Then you find yourself someone really nice, and drive her through the Bois de Boulogne in a taxi.
The rain’s very important, because that’s when Paris smells its sweetest.
It’s the damp chestnut trees, you see.

And yes, it was raining the first day I came to Paris.

“ I’m still pretty dumb about girl stuff. For a while I said, ‘Ah, girls are stupid.’ But after seeing all these Jeanne Moreau movies, I think being a girl is where it’s at. Like when I’m about thirty-five I’m gonna start wearing black cocktail dresses and become a real cunt.
