Normal’ is a bedtime story—a fable—that humans tell themselves to feel better when faced with overwhelming evidence that most of what’s happening around them is not ‘normal’ at all.”

“And it’s not insane to imagine that sometimes even horrible people are searching for a way out of their own darkness.”
Tahereh Mafi, Defy Me

André Aciman
“Time makes us sentimental. Perhaps, in the end, it is because of time that we suffer.”
André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name

“If you play it right, your struggles might even lead you to your strengths.”
Katherine Center, Things You Save in a Fire

“There are scars on my heart, just as thick, as disfiguring as those on my face. I know they’re there. I hope some undamaged tissue remains, a patch through which love can come in and flow out. I hope.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

Gail Honeyman
“Later. I woke again. I kept my eyes closed. I was curious about something. What, I wondered, was the point of me? I contributed nothing to the world, absolutely nothing, and I took nothing from it either. When I ceased to exist, it would make no material difference to anyone. Most people’s absence from the world would be felt on a personal level by at least a handful of people. I, however, had no one. I do not light up a room when I walk into it. No one longs to see me or to hear my voice. I do not feel sorry for myself, not in the least. These are simply statements of fact. I have been waiting for death all my life. I do not mean that I actively wish to die, just that I do not really want to be alive. Something had shifted now, and I realized that I didn’t need to wait for death. I didn’t want to. I unscrewed the bottle and drank deeply.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine
