Breakfast At Tiffany's by Truman Capote (1958)

“And since gin to artifice bears the same relation as tears to mascara, her attractions at once dissembled.”

“I don't want to own anything until I know I've found the place where me and things belong together. I'm not quite sure where that is just yet. But I know what it's like.”

“What I found does the most good is just to get into a taxi and go to Tiffany's. It calms me down right away, the quietness and the proud look of it;nothing very bad could happen to you there. ”
