“Well, what the fuck would an extraterrestrial life form want to come here for?”
Matt Haig, The Humans

Matt Haig
“Make sure, as often as possible, you are doing something you’d be happy to die doing.”
Matt Haig, The Humans

Matt Haig
“It's a wonder they ever get out of bed at all. But they do, repeatedly, thousands of times each. And not only that - they do it themselves, with no technology to help them. Maybe a little electrical activity in their toothbrushes and hairdryers, but nothing more than that. And all to reduce body odour, and hairs, and halitosis, and shame.”
Matt Haig, The Humans

Matt Haig
“This was, I would later realise, a planet of things wrapped inside things. Food inside wrappers. Bodies inside clothes. Contempt inside smiles. Everything was hidden away.”
Matt Haig, The Humans

Matt Haig
“And after that, after the awkward shuffling away of that last thin layer of clothes, words retreated to the sounds they once were. We had sex. A happy entanglement of warm limbs and warmer love. A physical and psychological merging that conjured a kind of inner light, a bio-emotional phosphorescence that was overwhelming in its gorgeousness. I wondered why they weren’t prouder of it. Of this magic. I wondered why, if they had to have flags, why they didn’t just opt for one with a picture of sex.”
Matt Haig, The Humans
