Matt Haig
“we are all stardust. The whole universe is inside us. Every element within us was made in a star. Nitrogen, calcium, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorous and all the other stuff. We are made of deep space and deep time and have been forged in supernovas (or supernovae, if we are being pretentious). An element, as you no doubt know, is matter that can’t be broken down into a simpler substance. They are the primes of the cosmos. We are made of elements. We have the unbreakable and the eternal inside us.”
Matt Haig, The Life Impossible

“Maybe that’s the truly ridiculous thing, the way we don’t even blink at the sheer improbability of our lives here on this rock spinning through space. The way we exist out of nothing, the way the whole universe exists out of nothing, and here we are, the impossible something that made existence out of the void. Impossible life. A fluke to be cherished.”
Matt Haig, The Life Impossible

“You see, if you want to visit a new world, you don’t need a spacecraft. All you need to do is change your mind.”
Matt Haig, The Life Impossible

“Kirby would like to say something reassuring to his son. Even more, he would like to say something true. But the convergence of these qualities is rare when it comes to the future of certain parts of the world.”
Lily Brooks-Dalton, The Light Pirate

Matt Haig
“He died before he became a teenager, let alone and adult, so it is hard to say who he would have turned out to be. There are two kinds of ghosts that torment you when a young person dies. The ghost of who they were, and the ghosts of who they could have been.”
Matt Haig, The Life Impossible
