“All passion is childish. It's banal and naive. It's nothing we learn; it's instinctive, and so it overwhelms us. Overturns us. It bears us away in a flood. All other emotions belong to earth, but passion inhabits the universe.

― Fredrik Backman, Britt-Marie Was Here

“My dad used to say the best place to look for sympathy was somewhere between shit and syphilis in the dictionary.”
― Mark Spragg, The Fruit of Stone
