“Sometimes he missed the numbed, walking-underwater feeling feel that the cocktail of narcotics used to give him. But if a situation went down in here, he was going to need all of his wits to get out of it.”

“Haji Ali taught me to share three cups of tea, to slow down and make building relationships as important as building projects. He taught me that I had more to learn from the people I work with than I could ever hope to teach them.”

“Remember that day I made you the elevator?” he suddenly asks.

I give him a faint smile. “How could I forget?”

“That was the day I had my first kiss.”

My smile fades.

“I’m better now,” He sets the apple beside me. “At kissing, just so you know.”
Stephanie Perkins, Lola and the Boy Next Door

“What kind of a place is Expectations?" inquired Milo,unable to see the humor and feeling very doubtful of the
little man's sanity.
"Good question, good question," he exclaimed. "Expectations
is the place you must always go to before you
get to where you're going. Of course, some people never go beyond Expectations, but my job is to hurry them along whether they like it or not.”
Norton Juster, The Phantom Tollbooth
