Carrie Brownstein, New Yorker,
Stumptown Girl, 2012:
“What seems to have defined me more
is that I’m pretty horrible at relationships and haven’t been in many long-term
ones. Leaving and moving on—returning to a familiar sense of self-reliance and
autonomy—is what I know; that feeling is as comfortable and comforting as it
might be for a different kind of person to stay.”
Amen.
