Wonder Quotes
-
I realised the bohemian life was not for me. I would look around at my friends, living like starving artists, and wonder, 'Where's the art?' They weren't doing anything. And there was so much interesting stuff to do, so much fun to be had... maybe I could even quit renting.

I wonder, whether, if I had had any education I should have been more, or less, of a fool than I am.
