My veins are filled, once a week with a Neapolitan carpet cleaner distilled from the Adriatic and I am as bald as an egg. However I still get around and am mean to cats. – John Cheever, letter to Philip Roth, 10 May 1982, published in The Letters of Jo
The moment my doctor told me, I went silent. My mum and dad were with me, then we all went to pieces. I was saying, No, Ive got my flight to Sydney in two hours. Im getting on a plane. – Kylie Minogue
