“"I've wasted my life. You don't know what it's like. You're a man, you're free, you can do what you want in life, until you're sixty at least you're a buyer. A woman's a seller. She has to be. And she better not haggle too long. I'm thirty-four. I've had my shot, Harry. I wasted it on Nelson. I had my little hand of cards and played them and now I'm folded, I'm through. My husband hates me and I hate him and we don't even have any money to split up! I'm scared-so scared. And my kids are scared, too. I'm trash and they're trash and they know it." --Page 534-535, 'Rabbit At Rest' by John Updike, Large Print edition. ___________________________________That was good stuff ! I'm still looking for all the Frank Sinatra stuff, and "Gogie Grant" where he flips the dial and all these oldies songs. Updike dissed Sinatra, but I need to search for that part and I'll quote it.More to come.”
