Amanda Palmer quotes about

If you're willing to take risks, Twitter is a vast amusement park of interesting life possibilities.
I have used Twitter for so many things, from places to stay, places to go, things to do, things I need, medical advice, you name it. Especially when I'm on tour, it really feels like I'm being taken care of by half a million people. It is like having a mom.
