Quotes by Andy Abramowitz (?)

“The Edinburgh Castle was incredible, wasn’t it?” she said. His face went hazy. “I don’t really remember a castle. But I was there a long time ago. Maybe it wasn’t built yet?” Possibly, she was tempted to say. The castle was built in 1280. When were you there?”
― Andy Abramowitz, A Beginner's Guide to Free Fall

“And once again, Molly marveled at the vast, limitless ways in which the extroverts failed to grasp the introverts, how the fighters would never understand the fleers.”
― Andy Abramowitz, A Beginner's Guide to Free Fall
