“Lies are a slippery slope, each one usually leading to two more.”
― Stephen King, If It Bleeds

“Dogs are the worst. They'll sell you out for a treat and a head pat.”
― John Scalzi, Starter Villain

“Naive dreams are love's last line of defense, so somehow we always convince ourselves people will succeed in escaping fate.”
― Fredrik Backman, The Winners

“People sometimes say that sorrow is mental but longing is physical. One is a wound, the other an amputated limb, a withered petal compared to a snapped stem. Anything that grows closely enough to what it loves will eventually share the same roots. We can talk about loss, we can treat it and give it time, but biology still forces us to live according to certain rules: plants that are split down the middle don't heal, they die.”
― Fredrik Backman, Beartown
