It’s only castles burning, find someone who’s turning, and you will come around  (Turning Quotes) I got out on the street and started crying the kind of hysterical tears made justifiable only by turning off one’s cell phone, putting it to the ear, and pretending to be told of a death in the family  (Turning Quotes) A story begins with this nebulous feeling that’s hard to get a hold of and you’re testing your feelings and assumptions, testing what you believe.
