They won’t be burying you for a long time yet. Not if you’re a good girl.

“That night, up in my bedroom, I peered out of the window through the darkness. For so many years this room had been the heart of my world. When I was very little I’d stood there by the same window, listening to the sounds of Willow Street, the trolleys and the automobiles and the sometime laughter of girls passing by with their young men. And always I had known there was something more out there, and I was anxious to know what that something might be. And always I had known I would get out, that I would go.” –Rosalind Russell, Life is a Banquet, p. 31
