Its not an accident that both my sister and I are writers. Our parents created an accidental Petri dish.

This small family farm was a bubble world that didnt have much to do with reality. – Elizabeth Gilbert
Marriage is not simply a romantic union between two people its also a political and economic contract of the highest order. – Elizabeth Gilbert

I dont hate humanity and Im not interested in people who do. Although, its funny, actually, some of my favorite writers really do. Like Martin Amis. My dirty secret. London Fields is one of my favorite books ever. And its indefensible! But hes so funny… I forgive him everything. – Elizabeth Gilbert
