“Committing to Nick, feeling safe with Nick, being happy with Nick, made me realize that there was a Real Amy in there, and she was so much better, more interesting and complicated and challenging, than Cool Amy. Nick wanted Cool Amy anyway. Can you imagine, finally showing your true self to your spouse, your soul mate, and having him not like you? So that’s how the hating first began. I’ve thought about this a lot, and that’s where it started, I think.”
― Gillian Flynn, Gone Girl

“If I've learned anything in twenty-nine years, it's
that every human being you see in the course of a day has a problem that's sucking up at least 70
percent of his or her radar. My gift - bad choice of words - is that I can look at you, him, her,
them, whoever, and tell right away what is keeping them awake at night: money; feelings of
insignificance; overwhelming boredom; evil children; job troubles; or perhaps death, in one of its
many costumes, perched in the wings. What surprises me about humanity is that in the end such a
narrow range of plights defines our moral lives.”
― Douglas Coupland, Hey Nostradamus!
