“Babies teach us not to be scared of death. That’s how we realize we can’t wish for eternal life. Because if no one died, we would have to ban new people from being born.

― Fredrik Backman, My Friends

“Like a man with diarrhea in a sandpaper factory, sometimes all available options are less than ideal.”
