“I wonder if I’ve been changed in the night? Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I’m not the same, the next question is ‘Who in the world am I?’ Ah, that’s the great puzzle!” – Alice in Wonderland

Quote of the Day
“That book is so fucked up; that story’s the worst. I mean, at the end the tree is a stump and the old guy just sitting on him #8212; he’s just used him to death, and you’re supposed to want to be the tree? Fuck you. You be the tree. I don’t want to be the tree.” – Ryan Gosling, when asked about his character’s Giving Tree tattoo in his new film Blue Valentine
My parents were never very strict, but there were certain things I was banned from reading or watching when I was little, namely because they threw me into a deep depression for weeks on end after I finished them. They go in this order: The Land Before Time, Stepmom and Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree.
However, Where the Sidewalk Ends was perfectly fine. People falling off the end of the earth obviously didn’t scare me as much as cancer and deforestation. I was a really mature child.
