Quote by Laura Hillenbrand
While its really hard to do, at the same time, Im escaping my body

While its really hard to do, at the same time, Im escaping my body, which I really want to do. Im living someone elses life. I get very intensely into the story, into the interviews and the research. Im experiencing things along with my subjects. I have a freedom I dont have in my physical life. – Laura Hillenbrand
