Fredrik Backman
“the best stories are never completely realistic and never entirely made-up.”
Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry

Fredrik Backman
“One day at a time. One dream at a time. And one could say it’s right and one could say it’s wrong. And probably both would be right. Because life is both complicated and simple. Which is why there are cookies.”
Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry

Fredrik Backman
“All their lives, girls are told that the only thing they need to do is their best. That that will be enough, as long as they give everything they’ve got. When they themselves become mothers, they promise their daughters that it’s true, that if we just do as well as we can, if we’re honest and work hard, look after our family and love each other, then everything will be all right. Everything will be fine, there’s nothing to be frightened of. Children need the lie to be brave enough to sleep in their beds; parents need it to be able to get up the next morning.”
Fredrik Backman, Beartown

Fredrik Backman
“If you are honest, people may deceive you. Be honest anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfishness. Be kind anyway. All the good you do today will be forgotten by others tomorrow. Do good anyway.”
Fredrik Backman, Beartown

Fredrik Backman
“There's an obvious difference between the children who live in homes where the money can run out and the ones who don't. How old you are when you realize that also makes a difference.”
Fredrik Backman, Beartown
