it’s always very easy to declare that other people are idiots, but only if you forget how idiotically difficult being human is.

Gail Honeyman
“In the end, what matters is this: I survived.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

Han Kang
“Is it true that human beings are fundamentally cruel? Is the experience of cruelty the only thing we share as a species? Is the dignity that we cling to nothing but self-delusion, masking from ourselves the single truth: that each one of us is capable of being reduced to an insect, a ravening beast, a lump of meat? To be degraded, slaughtered - is this the essential of humankind, one which history has confirmed as inevitable?”
Han Kang, Human Acts

Gail Honeyman
“I feel sorry for beautiful people. Beauty, from the moment you possess it, is already slipping away, ephemeral. That must be difficult.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

Gail Honeyman
“There are scars on my heart, just as thick, as disfiguring as those on my face. I know they’re there. I hope some undamaged tissue remains, a patch through which love can come in and flow out. I hope.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

Frances Hodgson Burnett
“Much more surprising things can happen to anyone who, when a disagreeable or discouraged thought comes into his mind, just has the sense to remember in time and push it out by putting in an agreeable, determinedly courageous one. Two things cannot be in one place.”
Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
