“Please stop inviting your ‘artiste’ friends over,” Tim says tiredly. “I’m sick of being the only one at dinner who hasn’t talked to an extraterrestrial.”

“When you're a kid, you assume you're just getting a taste for all the memorable experiences life has in store for you, but the truth is, most people don't spend countless nights running through the streets with their friends. They spend a handful of nights doing that if they're lucky.”

“When I'm sober, I'm careful not to overshare. I listen more than I speak. I ask people how they are, and when they ask me back, I say, "I'm great, thank you." After I drink, I wake up cringing, regretting how I burdened everyone around me with all my petty sorrows. I can't imagine the remorse I would feel if I woke up after burdening people with sorrows that weren't trivial.”

“Maybe it’s not order I’m looking for, though, and maybe that’s been the problem this whole time. Order and purpose are often considered synonymous, but there’s a subtle difference between the two. Finding order in this chaotic world has turned out to be a fool’s errand, but purpose might still have a chance.”

“Every moment of clarity cancels the next one out, every epiphany just leads to another question. It’s static. It’s chaos. It’s noise. Too many things spilling into one another to create a sickening, painful, exhausting soup called life. Reality is ridiculous, and the only thing that makes any sense is the nothingness between worlds.”

“There are billions and billions of paths for us on any given day, and we certainly remember the ones that lead to something like a brutal car crash. We think to ourselves, Why me? how did I get so unlucky? The problem is, we have absolutely no idea how many times we've missed one of the infinite tragic routes, ducking and dodging butterflies left and right. Every day, we never know the billions and billions and billions of crash crashes we're not in.”
