Book cover for The Hallmarked Man (Cormoran Strike, #8)
His older self had chosen to be cautious where he should have been bold; in recognising too late what he wanted and perhaps even needed, he’d jettisoned what he was increasingly feeling was his one chance of real happiness.

Stephen  King
“You know, schizoid behavior is a
pretty common thing in children. It's accepted, because all we adults have this
unspoken agreement that children are lunatics. They have invisible friends. They
may go and sit in the closet when they're depressed, withdrawing from the world.
They attach talismanic importance to a special blanket, or a teddy bear, or a
stuffed tiger. They suck their thumbs. When an adult sees things that aren't
there, we consider him ready for the rubber room. When a child says he's seen a
troll in his bedroom or a vampire outside the window, we simply smile
indulgently. We have a one-sentence explanation that explains the whole range of
such phenomena in children--"

  “He'll grow out of it,” Jack said.”
Stephen King, The Shining

“Not responding to the texts of a man who has wronged you is truly one of the sweetest pleasures in life..”
Jessi Klein, You'll Grow Out of It

E.B. White
“Now is my time to act!" he said to himself. "Now is my moment for risking everything on one bold move, however shocking it may be to my sensibilities, however offensive it may be to the laws that govern the lives of men. Here I go! May good luck go with me!”
E.B. White, The Trumpet of the Swan

Robin Hobb
“Such a storm of emotions as humans can evoke, all on the basis of imagination,” the dragon observed condescendingly. In a more reflective voice she asked, “Do you do this because you live such short lives? Tell yourselves wild tales of what might happen tomorrow, and feel all the feelings of events that will never happen? Perhaps to make up for the pasts you cannot recall, you invent futures that will not exist.”
Robin Hobb, Ship of Destiny

Adam Carolla
“There’s a general trend in the media (except on Fox News) to prove that this is an irreparably racist nation in which hate crimes occur every day. And comparing it to some magical land in your head that doesn’t exist, holding it to some impossible standard, doesn’t help. If America were a quarterback in the NFL, these assholes would declare, “Every incomplete pass is unacceptable. I have zero tolerance for incompletions,” rather than focus on his 70 percent completion rate.”
Adam Carolla, I'm Your Emotional Support Animal: Navigating Our All Woke, No Joke Culture
