New Find

I spent a good part of the day going over posts at A View from a Broad, [livejournal.com profile] ginmar's lj. She's fantastic--an ardent feminist, an ex-soldier who fought in Iraq, cat lover, book lover, prolific poster with a great sense of humor. I'm in awe of her. She wrote this:

"I don't understand how rich people live, I really don't. Couture? Cars? I'd have a couple extra bedrooms, a fireplace, an inglenook and a breakfast nook. I'd have fireplaces galore and built in bookshelves. I'd have a reader's house down some quiet lane with a creek at the edge of a the property and at least two porches. I've have a room just for books, but it wouldn't be a big house: too much space leaves your soul rattling around in confusion."

Too much space leaves your soul rattling around in confusion. Ooh another lovely quote to add to my collection.
