“How does it feel for a child to play hockey? It's not so hard to answer that. Have you ever been in love? That's how it feels.”
Fredrick Backman, Us Against You

“It's hard to care about people. Exhausting, in fact, because empathy is a complicated thing. It requires us to accept that everyone else's lives are also going on the whole time. We have no pause button for when everything gets too much for us to deal with, but then neither does anyone else.”
Fredrick Backman, Us Against You

“They say that a person's personality is the sum of their experiences. But that isn't true, at least not entirely, because if our past was all that defined us, we'd never be able to put up with ourselves. We need to be allowed to convince ourselves that we're more than the mistakes we made yesterday. That we are all of our next choices, too, all of our tomorrows.”
Fredrick Backman, Anxious People

“It's not a voluntary process, it's an emotional assault; you become someone else's property the first time you hear your child cry. You belong to that little person now. Before everything else. So when something happens to your child, it never stops being your fault.”
Fredrick Backman, Us Against You

“They run only where there are lights. They don't say anything but are both thinking the same thing: guys never think about light, it just isn't a problem in their lives. When guys are scared of the dark, they're scared of ghosts and monsters, but when girls are scared of the dark, they are scared of guys.”
Fredrick Backman, Us Against You
