Therapy was the biggest romance of my life....

In the laughing times we know that we are lucky, and in the quiet times we know that we are blessed. And we will not be alone.

If you're looking for can-do, earthy-crunchy attitude then you've got to go to Wisconsin.

Arizona is really cool but I couldn't stay there for too long.

Some say that the age of chivalry is past, that the spirit of romance is dead. The age of chivalry is never past, so long as there is a wrong left unredressed on earth.

By all but the pathologically romantic, it is now recognized that this is not the age of the small man.

Think back to yourself at age 18. I know I was mighty different than the Patti I am today. As we grow up, we grow out of our haircuts, our apartments and - often times - our romantic decisions.

I think I meant that, given the circumstances of my childhood, I had the illusion that it's easier to be alone. To have your relationships be casual and also to pose as a solitary person, because it was more romantic. You know, I was raised on the idea of the ramblin' man and the loner.
