“It breaks my heart that the first question we ask when we meet a person is what they do for a living. Why are we so defined by our jobs? Nobody seems to be interested in the important things, like the fact that my favorite color is teal, that I love to dance in the rain, that Christmas is my favorite time of the year, and that I believe in magic. Ask me, instead, what I daydream about, and what my favorite book is. These, after all, are the things that matter.”
