“I don’t want to look at the world through rose-colored glasses… I want the world to be rose colored! I want people to be nice. People should be nice. Nice should be the norm. I hate it that I can’t trust anyone. I hate it that I can’t put my daughter on the front lawn by herself. I hate it that I have to lock my car and I have to worry about an alarm system in my house and I can’t send cash in the mail. That’s not the way it’s supposed to be!” — Karen Fairgate MacKenzie’s famous “Pollyanna” speech, KNOTS LANDING
