“That’s the thing with the young these days, isn’t it? They watch too many happy endings. Everything has to be wrapped up, with a smile and a tear and a wave. Everyone has learned, found love, seen the error of their ways, discovered the joys of monogamy, or fatherhood, or filial duty, or life itself. In my day, people got shot at the end of films, after learning only that life is hollow, dismal, brutish, and short.”
― Nick Hornby, A Long Way Down

“We read to know we're not alone.”
― William Nicholson, Shadowlands: A Play

“In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.”
― Robert Frost

“The trouble with my generation is that we all think we're fucking geniuses. Making something isn't good enough for us, and neither is selling something, or teaching something, or even just doing something; we have to be something.”
― Nick Hornby, A Long Way Down
