Sentences of the Week:
“Globalization 3.0 makes it possible for so many more people to plug in and play, and you are going to see every color of the human rainbow take part” (11). - The World is Flat
“‘Being gay is not a choice. Gay people were made that way by God,’ I’d lectured Mr. Garth proudly. But it took me another whole year to figure out the second part: ‘Gay people were made that way by God, but not solely for my entertainment’” (42). - Bossypants
“To say he was unfriendly would be the biggest understatement since the captain of the Hindenberg said, ‘I smell gas’” (61). - Bossypants
I liked the first quote because I liked the phrase "human rainbow." It sounds like a cheerleading position. Like a human pyramid but cheerier.
I liked the second quote because I can relate to Tina Fey as I too have made this realization at one point in my life (however, my friend was black, and I was around 5, not 17, when I discovered this).
And I liked the last one because the Hindenberg is one of my favorite historical disasters.This quote also happens to take the cake for best quote of the week.
