“Do you know what the worst thing about being a parent is? That you're always judged by your worst moments. You can do a million things right, but if you do one single thing wrong you're forever that parent who was checking his phone in the park when your child was hit in the head by a swing. We don't take our eyes off them for days at a time, but then you read just one text message and it's as if all your best moments never happened. No one goes to see a psychologist to talk about all the times they weren't hit in the head by a swing as a child. Parents are defined by their mistakes.”
― Fredrik Backman, Anxious People

“Jadi yang bisa kau lakukan hanyalah belajar untuk hidup di sisi dinding ini. Berusaha saja membuat sisi dinding ini sama menyenangkannya seperti keinginan mamamu.”

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

“Lain kali, jangan terlalu takut sama orang. Just remember, prinsip kehidupan itu sama seperti ketika berpapasan dengan ular: yang satu sama takutnya dengan yang lain.”
