“The truth is rarely pure and never simple.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

“What came first – the music or the misery? Did I listen to the music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to the music? Do all those records turn you into a melancholy person?”
― Nick Hornby, High Fidelity

“If you don't change your beliefs, your life will be like this forever. Is that good news?”
