“Loving someone is like moving into a house. At first you fall in love with all the new things, then over the years the walls become weathered, the wood splinters here and there, and you start to love that house not so much because of all its perfection, but rather its imperfections.”
― Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove

“Remind myself that there is no saving of people—people can only save themselves. The best you can do is help when they're ready.”
― Beth O'Leary, The Flatshare

“those were the best moments of my life. Your fingertips in the palm of my hand. Before you knew how many things I'd failed at.”
― Fredrik Backman

“That we do our best. We plant an apple tree today, even if we know the world is going to be destroyed tomorrow. We save those we can.”
― Fredrik Backman, Anxious People
