Pip Williams
“A vulgar word, well placed and said with just enough vigour, can express far more than its polite equivalent.”
― Pip Williams, The Dictionary of Lost Words

Tom Bower
“opinion she was being ‘maliciously’ depicted by her discarded friend ‘as a conniving social climber who had her sights on snagging a prince ever since she was in high school.’361 Priddy’s assessment”
― Tom Bower, Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War between the Windsors

Matt Haig
“A person was like a city. You couldn't let a few less desirable parts put you off the whole. There may be bits you don't like, a few dodgy side streets and suburbs, but the good stuff makes it worthwhile.”
― Matt Haig, The Midnight Library

Chuck Klosterman
“No stories were viral. No celebrity was trending. The world was still big. The country was still vast. You could just be a little person, with your own little life and your own little thoughts. You didn’t have to have an opinion, and nobody cared if you did or did not. You could be alone on purpose, even in a crowd.”
― Chuck Klosterman, The Nineties

Matt Haig
“Regrets don’t leave. They weren’t mosquito bites. They itch for ever.”
― Matt Haig, The Midnight Library
