> Although she can quote Jane Austen by heart, she no longer devotes time to novels or friends, doesn’t date, doesn’t own a television, and hasn’t taken a vacation in ten years. Her refrigerator is all but empty, as she eats most of her meals at the office. She is a vegan, and several times a day she drinks a pulverized concoction of cucumber, parsley, kale, spinach, romaine lettuce, and celery. Every time I read about these ultra successful people, I just think they are freaking machines... and I don't mean that in a derogatory or mean way. I am genuinely amazed people can operate like that. I know I can't.
