“Sometimes the best thing to do with people who would never listen to you in the first place is to avoid them altogether. To right every wrong you come across in the world would be an impossible endeavour for any one person. You’re just one person, and you’re putting too much of the weight of the world on yourself.”
― Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki

“I can do well today, or not. It’ll be an experience either way.”
― Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki

“Even in my most unbearably depressed moments I could be laughing at a friend's joke but still feel an emptiness in my heart.”
― Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die But I Want to Eat Tteokpokki

“A life surrounded by good people is a successful life. It might not be success as defined by society, but thanks to the people around you, each day is a successful day'.”
