The law of gravity thus asserts itself when a house falls about our ears.
Karl Marx

I'd like to be smart, fun, and real. It's very easy to just put together a pretty dress, some heels, and some jewels. I don't want to be that girl. It's all about being brave, taking risks. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Ella Purnell
Comedians talk to other comedians the way jazz musicians can talk to each other.
