Cotton Candy Quotes

• To seek approval is to have no resting place, no sanctuary. Like all judgement, approval encourages a constant striving. It makes us uncertain of who we are and of our true value. Approval cannot be trusted. It can be withdrawn at any time no matter what our track record has been. It is as nourishing of real growth as cotton candy. Yet many of us spend our lives pursuing it.

• I think life is cotton candy on a rainy day. For those who grew up with cotton candy the old-fashioned way, it is very delicate. Pre-made cotton candy that has preservatives is not nearly as good or true. True cotton candy is sugar, color, and air and it melts very quickly. That was the metaphor - it can't be preserved, it can't be put aside, it can't be banked. It has to be experienced, like life.

• Not everyone can or will love you. You could run a cotton candy and unicorn farm and someone's gonna think you're an asshole. Everyone's fighting their own battle and it often has nothing to do with you.

• If you wait until you got time to write a novel, or time to write a story, or time to read the hundred thousands of books you should have already read - if you wait for the time, you will never do it. ‘Cause there ain’t no time; world don’t want you to do that. World wants you to go to the zoo and eat cotton candy, preferably seven days a week.

• Los adultos siempre dicen a los jóvenes: "Estos son los mejores años de tu vida". ¿Lo son? No lo sé. A veces, cuando los adultos dicen esto a los niños, les miro a la cara. Parecen alguien en el asiento superior de la noria que ha comido demasiado algodón de azúcar y barbacoa. Les gustaría bajarse y ponerse enfermos, pero todo el mundo les sigue diciendo lo bien que se lo están pasando.

• Your humor is your compass and your shield. You can hone it into a weapon or you can pull its strands out to make your very own cotton-candy blanket. You can’t exist on a diet of humor alone, but you can’t exist on a diet without it, either.

• For a while I thought I was the dragon. I guess I can tell you that now. And, for a while, I thought I was the princess, cotton candy pink, sitting there in my room, in the tower of the castle, young and beautiful and in love and waiting for you with confidence but the princess looks into her mirror and only sees the princess, while I’m out here, slogging through the mud, breathing fire, and getting stabbed to death. Okay, so I’m the dragon. Big deal. You still get to be the hero. You get magic gloves! A fish that talks! You get eyes like flashlights!

• To value the tradition of, and the discipline required for, the craft of fiction seems today pointless. The real Arcadia is a lonely, mountainous plateau, overbouldered and strewn with the skulls of sheep slain for vellum and old bitten pinions that tried to be quills. It's forty rough miles by mule from Athens, a city where there's a fair, a movie house, cotton candy.

• Si Los Ángeles es una mujer modelo de cartel reclinable con labios hinchados de colágeno y pechos inflados de silicona, una mujer en un descapotable magenta con gafas de sol en forma de corazón y pelo de algodón de azúcar; si Los Ángeles es esta mujer, entonces el Valle de San Fernando es su hermana teenybopper. Si Los Ángeles es esta mujer, el Valle de San Fernando es su hermana adolescente. Teeny pone la radio demasiado alta y se muerde las uñas, preguntándose si el esmalte de purpurina la envenenará.

• Aconsejar a una persona normal que no se preocupe por las calorías, sino que preste atención a los desencadenantes del hambre y coma alimentos ricos en nutrientes... bueno, es un concepto maravilloso. También me encanta la idea de unicornios saltando sobre arco iris de algodón de azúcar. Incluso me estoy planteando jugar al baloncesto para ver si me hace más alta. ¡Venga ya! Sugerir que alguien que lucha con su peso no necesita pensar en las calorías es tan arriesgado como sugerirte que no mires las etiquetas de los precios la próxima vez que vayas a comprar un coche.
