• I sit at my desk
  each night with no place to go,
  opening the wrinkled maps of Milwaukee and Buffalo,
  the whole U.S.,
  its cemeteries, its arbitrary time zones,
  through routes like small veins, capitals like small stones.

• For a small open economy that trades mostly with the euro zone it makes absolute sense to be part of the currency union. Our currency has already pegged to the euro since 2002. We don't have an independent monetary policy. We are regulated by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt, but we are not able to reap all the profits. Our businesses want to save the transaction costs.

He showed me how to work on me and my game, and not worry about patterning myself after someone else and focusing on what they were capable of doing rather than what I was capable of doing.

It establishes what the world is like and what would happen if we really had two zones that were left and everybody had to survive using these two areas.
