“Bottom line is, even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets?

“You make yourself strong because it's expected of you. You become confident because someone beside you is unsure. You turn into the person others need you to be.”

“There is a downside to casual sex: Sometimes it stops being casual. People develop a desire for something more.

― Neil Strauss, The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists
