“Los Angeles, he decided, was a profoundly stupid city, and he felt a palpable, if irrational, longing for all things Massachusetts.”

“I am insulated from the weather by my house and its conditioned air. I eat strawberries in January. When it is raining, I can go inside. When it is dark, I can turn on the lights. It is easy for me to feel like climate is mostly an outside phenomenon, whereas I am mostly an inside phenomenon.”

“[Calvin's Mom is driving him somewhere.]
CALVIN: Mom, can I drive on the way back?
CALVIN'S MOM: Of course not, Calvin.
CALVIN: Can I just steer then? I promise I won't crash.
CALVIN'S MOM: No, Calvin.
CALVIN: Can I work the gas and brakes while YOU steer?
CALVIN'S MOM: No, Calvin.
CALVIN: You never let me do anything.”
― Calvin & Hobbes

“Mrs. Lasserstein passes out copies of Lord of the Flies and says this will be our fall book, but a whole season seems too long because Lord of the Flies is only 208 pages, and I have already read it, and it is not very interesting. It is by William Golding who won an award for showing that boys are mean and badly behaved, even somewhere nice like the beach. This seems like something anyone in the entire world who has ever met a boy could tell you, but they gave William Golding a Nobel Prize for it.”
