“But it's a strange thing, the effect that everyone singing together has- the bond that grows between you, the feeling of unity. It gives you the strength to carry on, when things are hard. And it's hard to hate anyone when you're singing with them; hard to be angry...”
― Joan D. Vinge, The Outcasts of Heaven Belt

“The fact remains that getting people right is not what living is all about anyway. It's getting them wrong that is living, getting them wrong and wrong and wrong and then, on careful reconsideration, getting them wrong again. That's how we know we're alive: we're wrong.”
― Philip Roth, American Pastoral

I blink. It's so close to what I was thinking that it's almost eerie. "You are the strangest man I've ever met."

"Exactly. What? What kind of threat is that? You're worried about your floors?"
"They're nice floors.”
― Katee Robert, Neon Gods

“My reading list grows exponentially. Every time I read a book, it'll mention three other books I feel I have to read. It's like a particularly relentless series of pop-up ads.”
― A.J. Jacobs, The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible
