John Cheever Quote

There was some faint coughing, a moan, and then a man spoke. Are you all right, darling? he asked. Yes, a woman said wearily. Yes, I'm all right, I guess, and then she added with great feeling, But you know, Charlie, I don't feel like myself anymore. Sometimes there are about fifteen or twenty minutes in the week when I feel like myself. I don't like to go to another doctor, because the doctor's bills are so awful already, but I just don't feel like myself, Charlie. I just never feel like myself.
