“A single moment that lasts a lifetime, still poisoning anything I come close to, to this day. Every person I touch.”
― David Grossman, A Horse Walks into a Bar

“Of course. And you said I was one of a kind, and that if I cried ’cause of them, then you see it upside down, and it’s like I’m laughing ’cause of me.”
― David Grossman, A Horse Walks into a Bar

“from the minute I saw your face, your round, light-filled face, with its beautiful, wise, pure forehead, with its roots of strong, dense hair, which I stupidly believed testified to your strong grip on life, and your broad, large, generous, dancing body – don’t you dare erase even one of those adjectives – you were such medicine for me, such medicine for the dry bachelorhood that had closed in on me,”
― David Grossman, A Horse Walks into a Bar

“If you aim to be something you are not, you will always fail. Aim to be you. Aim to look and act and think like you. Aim to be the truest version of you. Embrace that you-ness. Endorse it. Love it. Work hard at it. And don't give a second thought when people mock it or ridicule it. Most gossip is envy in disguise.”
― Matt Haig, The Midnight Library
