“An entire generation will throw off the fetters of rote commitment in favor of invention, hope—and we, their children, will try to locate the moment we lost them and worry that it was our fault.”
― Jennifer Egan, The Candy House

“The truth is, if you don’t exist without someone else, you don’t exist at all.”
― Tana French, The Trespasser

“Tongue-in-cheek nostalgia is merely the portal, the candy house, if you will, through which we hope to lure in a new generation and bewitch them.”
― Jennifer Egan, The Candy House

“I’ve done therapy. They don’t tell you the truth.” “But I like my therapist.” Jake scoffed. “I didn’t say you didn’t or shouldn’t like your therapist. I’m just saying, they’re liars. They don’t know they’re liars. They just are. It’s been coded into them, the lie.” “And what lie is that?” “That you’re broken, and that the way you are is on you to fix.” “I don’t get what you mean.” Jake leaned forward, passing the bottle back. “I mean this: You being fucked up? It’s normal.”
― Chuck Wendig, The Book of Accidents
