1. “So, I just realized that all of the classical great earth-shattering jazz recordings of the 50s… Like Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, all the GREATS… Were recorded by a guy in Jersey at his parents’ house where he was living… Working as an optometrist during the day… I’ve known this, but for some reason the parallel between that and us as ‘Emily Dickinson children’ finally clicked.”

2. “Unfortunately, I don’t think smart people are reproducing at a high enough rate.”

3. “When I see a parent feeding their toddler those Lunchables, I consider it child abuse.”

4. “You’ll recognize me by my sloppy seasonal garb.”
