“I imagined myself growing old, living in my little apartment, surrounded by lots of cats.”

50% and I still don't know where the story is heading

"If more people read, I think the world would become a better place."

It was an important lesson learnt: never to blindly recommend her own favourites to the customer.

But I always recommend my favorite books. XD

if you spend your present focusing on your past, you will never change your future.

Life is a performance, and we don’t all like the scripts we’re given; sometimes it’s best to write your own.

If you can’t find your way back to Happy,

Dear Whoever,
I had all the chances to make something of my life, and I blew every one of them. Through my own carelessness and misfortune, the world has retreated from me, and so now it makes perfect sense that I should retreat from the world.
If I felt it was possible to stay, I would. But I don’t. And so I can’t. I make life worse for people.
I have nothing to give. I’m sorry.
Be kind to each other.
Bye,
Nora

Whenever you don’t understand something, it’s best to ask.

"If only everyone in the world loved books, then it might be a more peaceful place."

there was one line that one must not cross: losing oneself too deeply in the world of books.

"It’s important to know what you do not know. The worst thing you can do is to think that you understand something when you really don’t."

“Life is like a wonderful movie.”
