“Жизнь подчинялась своим, никем не придуманным законам, одним из которых был кофе и те, кто его пил. Сначала тебе разрешают пить кофе. Потом перестают следить за тем, в котором часу ты ложишься спать. Курить никто не разрешает, но не разрешать можно по-разному. Поэтому старшие курят почти все, а из младших только один. Курящие и пьющие кофе старшие становятся очень нервными-и вот им уже разрешают превратить лекционный зал в кафе, не спать по ночам и не завтракать. А начинается все с кофе.”

“From the passenger seat, Ronan began to swear at Adam. It was a long, involved swear, using every forbidden word possible, often in compound-word form. As Adam stared at his lap, penitent, he mused that there was something musical about Ronan when he swore, a careful and loving precision to the way he fit the words together, a black-painted poetry. It was far less hateful sounding than when he didn’t swear.
Ronan finished with, “For the love of … Parrish, take some care, this is not your mother’s 1971 Honda Civic.”
Adam lifted his head and said, “They didn’t start making the Civic until ’73.”

“Ronan said, "I'm always straight."
Adam replied "Oh, man, that's the biggest lie you've ever told.”

“If you know someone who’s depressed, please resolve never to ask them why. Depression isn’t a straightforward response to a bad situation; depression just is, like the weather.

Try to understand the blackness, lethargy, hopelessness, and loneliness they’re going through. Be there for them when they come through the other side. It’s hard to be a friend to someone who’s depressed, but it is one of the kindest, noblest, and best things you will ever do.”
