“Sometimes stunned silence is better than applause.”
Jenny Lawson, Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things

Jenny  Lawson
“I hope to one day see a sea of people all wearing silver ribbons as a sign that they understand the secret battle, and as a celebration of the victories made each day as we individually pull ourselves up out of our foxholes to see our scars heal, and to remember what the sun looks like.”
Jenny Lawson, Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things

Jenny  Lawson
“When I was a kid I never won anything and when I mentioned it to my mom she looked up from her book and pointed out that I had once been the youngest person in the entire world. Sure, it was only for a millisecond, but it was a record I’d set without even trying.”
Jenny Lawson, Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things

Jenny  Lawson
“The phrase “Rest in peace” seems incredibly self-serving. It basically means, “Stay in your grave. Don’t haunt me.”
Jenny Lawson, Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things

Garrison Keillor
“A young writer is easily tempted by the allusive and ethereal and ironic and reflective, but the declarative is at the bottom of most good writing.”
Garrison Keillor
