I dont know why I love this quote in reference to Jimmy’s then fear of heights in 1975, but this is such a strong visual image. Just a wee little Jimmy running along the train tracks. Its almost lyrical, like a song.
(Its from Creem Magazines piece on Zeppelin in 1975 I believe)

"She was wearing a black velvet dress that seemed every moment about to slip from her shoulders, and she wore a lace headdress trimmed with flowers and grapes. Her arms, at once slender and firm, emerged from puffed sleeves frilled with lace. She looked like one of those rare fruits, coquettishly served on a beautiful plate, that make the knife blade itch to be cutting them."
~ Honoré de Balzac, Cousin Bette (transl. Kathleen Raine)

meeting your soul mate is like walking into a house you've been in before - you will recognize the furniture, the pictures on the wall, the books on the shelves, the contents of drawers: you could find your way around in the dark if you had to.

Men often described the girl as having hair the color of wheat. Others called it the color of caramel, or occasionally the color of honey. The girl wondered why men so often used food to describe women's features. There was a hunger to such men that was best avoided.

I do hope we end up together. I can't bear the thought of someone else being the one for me. It has to be you. I really really want it to be you.
