...take or force herself to vomit, as several fans have asked. But she's not often having stuffed shells and mopped-up sauce. The day we spent together, De Laurentiis had a little bit of oatmeal with maple syrup for breakfast and a Caesar salad with chicken for lunch, followed by several small sweets from a cake shop.

You didn’t need Harvard at all, nor will your life be any better for having attended this elite institution. You had roaches in your room, ate lunch next to mice, and are still confused why you had to pay anything at all to come here when Harvard’s endowment alone could fund several miniature planets.
