self-medication

(Breakfast at Tiffany's is one of my all-time favorite films because Holly Golightly, for a while, proved that it is possible to live the free spirited life without looking it.  but in the end, it was love that prevailed.  this line suits me very well.)

"Okay. life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness.  you call yourself a 'free spirit', a 'wild thing', and you're terrified somebody's gonna stuck you in a cage.  well, baby, you're already in that cage.  you built it yourself.  and it's not bounded in the west by tulip, texas, or in the east by somali-land.  it's wherever you go.  because no matter where you go, you just end up running into yourself."
