&ldquo;maybe I can help&rdquo;<br /> <br /> &ldquo;Ah, yes, you want to be a writer don&rsquo;t you?&rdquo;<br /> <br /> &ldquo;You say that as if it&rsquo;s a bad thing&rdquo;<br /> <br /> &ldquo;No, no. just a lonely thing.

&quot;Dear God,&quot; she prayed, &quot;let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. Let me be gay; let me be sad. Let me be cold; let me be warm. Let me be hungry...have too much to eat. Let me be ragged or well dressed. Let me be sincere - be deceitful. Let me be truthful; let me be a liar. Let me be honorable and let me sin. Only let me be something every blessed minute. And when I sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.&quot; - Betty Smith (A Tree Grows in Brooklyn)
