“I felt that if I somehow gave up my most cherished possessions and activities, then I would deserve something good to happen to me. It was my feeble attempt at undoing years of underachieving.”

Patrick’s Quotes

“All of their fathers worked at the local plant and many of their mothers worked odd jobs as waitresses or secretaries. Their houses were small and decrepit. The rooms were full of outdated appliances and secondhand knickknacks, their parents fearful of parting with anything of potential future worth. They’d been taught to repurpose things. Frugality reigned supreme. Survival was their religion. The ability to get through another day was the only trait passed down.”
