“It’s fucking terrifying to be in love with each other.”
― Emily Henry, You and Me on Vacation

“Who can understand the workings of fate, after all? Far greater minds than mine had tried, and failed, to arrive at a conclusion.”
― Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

“Beauty meant that you were good. And being good meant being happy. Happiness can be defined all kinds of ways, but human beings, consciously or unconsciously, are always pulling for their own version of happiness. Even people who want to die see death as a kind of solace, and view ending their lives as the only way to make it there. Happiness is the base unit of consciousness, our single greatest motivator. Saying "I just want to be happy" trumps any other explanation. But who knows. Maybe Makiko had a more specific reason, not just some vague idea of how to make herself happy.”
― Mieko Kawakami, Breasts and Eggs

“I didn’t know regular life could feel like this, like a vacation you don’t have to go home from.”
― Emily Henry, People We Meet on Vacation
