B.J. Novak
“If you love something, let it go.
If you don't love something, definitely let it go.
Basically, just drop everything, who cares.”
B.J. Novak, One More Thing: Stories and Other Stories

B.J. Novak
“I can’t even handle love, there’s no way I can handle it being taken away. I won’t survive it. Please. Please. Please!”

I said that I had something to say to her, which made her listen in a way that she didn’t when I simply said things without the preface. Even though the preface meant nothing, it calmed her, just as it calmed real people, for the same no-reason.

I told her what people tell people. That this was what it felt like when love was taken away—but that it wasn’t the truth, it was just a feeling. It would pass. It would take time.
She would recharge.

She didn’t believe me.

No one ever believes it, I said. That’s part of what the feeling is.”
B.J. Novak, One More Thing: Stories and Other Stories

Hanya Yanagihara
“...things get broken, and sometimes they get repaired, and in most cases, you realize that no matter what gets damaged, life rearranges itself to compensate for your loss, sometimes wonderfully.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Mariana Enriquez
“[B]efore the Chinese figured out what gunpowder was for, they'd thought it could be used as an immortality elixir. How did they found out they were wrong? she asked me. The most logical way possible: it blew up in their faces, and ever since then they've used it for fireworks. And the truth is that when I see particularly beautiful fireworks, I really do feel immortal.”
Mariana Enriquez, Our Share of Night

Haruki Murakami
“How much do you love me?' Midori asked.

'Enough to melt all the tigers in the world to butter,' I said.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
