Mary Svevo – Character Quotes

— How did I look?
— Happy. Happy with a secret.

How happy is the blameless Vestal's lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot: Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned.

You look at a baby, and it's so pure and so free and so clean. And adults are, like, this mess of sadness... and... phobias.
