This might be my favorite passage:
“It’s so strange that we don’t want spoilers in our stories, but we seek them in our lives... We want it all spoiled, with as little mystery as possible. But… there is always an unknown variable, and that unknown variable is often yourself. Embrace the mystery would be my advice.”

“Indeed, the willingness to be confused I now realize is a prerequisite for a good life. Wanting things to be simple can become a kind of prison… you end up staying trapped inside how you want things to be rather than embracing how they could be.”

“I suppose that is one of the purposes of all reading. It helps you live lives beyond the one you are inside… All reading, in short, is telepathy and all reading is time travel. It connects us to everyone and everywhere and every time and every imagined dream.”
