Celia Cruz - I never talk about age, but I was born...

I never talk about age, but I was born singing. My mother, Catalina, told me that at 9 or 10 months of age I'd wake up in the middle of the night, 2 or 3 in the morning, singing "esta muchachita va a trabajar de noche." (Celia Cruz)

I never talk about age, but I was born singing. My mother, Catalina, told me that at 9 or 10 months of age I'd wake up in the middle of the night, 2 or 3 in the morning, singing "esta muchachita va a trabajar de noche."

Don't get me wrong, magic is cool. But a nervous mother singing to her child at night while something moves quietly through the dark outside her house? That's a story. Handled properly, it's more dramatic than any apocalypse or goblin army could ever be.

Patrick Rothfuss

They always ask me the same questions. Where was I born? When did I start singing? Who have I worked with? I don't understand why they can't just talk to me without all that question bit.

Sarah Vaughan

I was happy enough; I knew that during the night the whole city might go up in flames and all its people be killed, but the ravines, houses, and footpaths would wake in the morning calm and unchanged.

Cesare Pavese

Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday.

Eleanor Roosevelt

I don't need a baby growing inside me for nine months. If I'm going to feel nauseous and achy when I wake up, I want to achieve that state the old-fashioned way: getting good and drunk the night before.
