Haruki Murakami
“Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.”
― haruki murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

Rachel Joyce
“Sometimes, Harold, the way forward takes you by surprise. You try to force something in the familiar direction and discover that what it needs is to move in a different dimension. The way forward is not forward, but off to one side, in a place you have not noticed before.”
― Rachel Joyce, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy

Rachel Joyce
“This is the conclusion I have come to: if we work at it, it is always possible to find a rational explanation for what we don't understand. But perhaps it is wiser once in a while to accept that we don't understand, and stop there. To explain is sometimes to diminish. And what does it matter if I believe one thing and you believe another? We share the same end.”
― Rachel Joyce, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy

Chris Hadfield
“When you're the least experienced person in the room, it's not the time to show off. You don't yet know what you don't know - and regardless of your abilities, your experience and your level of authority, there will definitely be something you don't know.”
― Chris Hadfield

Joan Didion
“I find many mass cards from the funerals of people whose faces I no longer remember. In theory these mementos serve to bring back the moment. In fact they serve only to make clear how inadequately I appreciated the moment when it was here. How inadequately I appreciated the moment when it was here is something else I could never afford to see.”
― Joan Didion, Blue Nights
