Rose had the sort of eyes that manage perfectly well with things close by, but entirely blur out things far away.

Rose looked up, and it was like walking into a dark room and someone switching on the universe. ↗

Michael came home and asked, Would you like to write a song with me? I got this idea for a title called A Kiss at the End of a Rainbow. So we had a couple glasses of wine and wrote it. ↗

I knew all this Beatles music. I knew the songs phonetically. It was like my whole experience of that music was out of focus, and somebody put the perfect glasses on me, and all of a sudden I could see everything. ↗
