Nick Alexander
“There are moments in life- and I would have to admit that I don´t have them as often as I would like - when everything just comes together, and when, even being single, I feel happy, relaxed and confident. Some days, like today, I feel, as the French would say, so comfortable in my skin, that I could almost cry with the joy of being alive”
Nick Alexander, The Case Of The Missing Boyfriend

Nick Alexander
“And all of this leaves me wondering if this dream of mine-that out there, somewhere, hiding, there exists a guy who is cultured and calm, and smiley and faithful, who want´s to escape the rat-race with me and, apparently like the French, wear wellies and make cheese...Well, I wonder if it can possibly exist. I don´t want much...just someone who would flat on his stomach next to me in the garden watching ants carrying crumbs through the jungle of blades of grass. I wonder if that can ever exist, anywhere, for anyone.”
Nick Alexander, The Case Of The Missing Boyfriend

Nick Alexander
“A reasonable looking guy with a sense of humour to go to parties with: surely that´s not too much to ask, is it?”
Nick Alexander, The Case Of The Missing Boyfriend

Mitch Albom
“There are two stories for every life; the one you live, and the one others tell.”
Mitch Albom, The First Phone Call from Heaven

Nick Alexander
“Mona´s Law apparently states that everyone wants three things - that happiness is made up on three - piece jigsaw: a good relationship, a nice place to live, and a good job. And Mona´s law states that it is mathematically impossible to maintain more than two out of the three. Thus, if you have a good job and a nice flat and you meet a lovely guy, bam-you lose your job. So you change jobs and find the perfect undreamt-of work opportunity, and wham, your landlord kicks you out on the street.”
Nick Alexander, The Case Of The Missing Boyfriend
