“A brick isn't boring. You could look at a brick and be mesmerized-its texture, its shape, all its cracks and blemishes. The cobweb smell, the smooth power it leaves on your fingers.”

“if it weren’t all so beautiful, if every tiny thing weren’t so relentlessly fucking beautiful, perhaps I’d be the one with the paperclip, but instead I’ll wander through it alone, blessed with every friend there is.”

“But life isn't a house, is it? It's more like a hotel. And there are good hotels and there are bad hotels, but it's okay because you only stay in each one for a little bit. Maybe you're staying in a nice room with a comfy bed and good food, but the next could be horrible. Or maybe you're in the horrible one, but you know the next one might be better. And you're constantly moving, and things get better, and things get worse. But no matter what - it's not a house. You can't stay there forever.”
