“Love isn’t something you can cup in your hands, and I have to believe that means it’s something that can’t ever be lost.”
Emily Henry, Great Big Beautiful Life

Jonathan Haidt
“The cost of a thing is the amount of . . . life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.”
Jonathan Haidt, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness

Jonathan Haidt
“As the Stoics and Buddhists taught long ago, happiness cannot be reached by eliminating all "triggers" from life; rather, happiness comes from learning to deprive external events of the power to trigger negative emotions in you.”
Jonathan Haidt, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness

Jonathan Haidt
“While fear triggers the full response system at the moment of danger, anxiety triggers parts of the same system when a threat is merely perceived as possible. It is healthy to be anxious and on alert when one is in a situation where there really could be dangers lurking. But when our alarm bell is on a hair trigger so that it is frequently activated by ordinary events- including many that pose no real threat-it keeps us in a perpetual state of distress. This is when ordinary, healthy, temporary anxiety turns into an anxiety disorder.”
Jonathan Haidt, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness

“I don't think there's a right way to feel,' I say. 'And you can't control it, anyway. Feelings are like weather. They just happen, and then they pass.”
Emily Henry, Funny Story
