Just in time for the chapter 4 discussion

One final pause before I finish this book... LET'S GO!!!

"Affirmative."

You choke, we choke. 💔

I just wiped my eyeglasses and now this?! 😭😭😭

cutieee 🥹🤍

Oh how I miss reading TJR books 😭 I’m so happy 💙

Bracing myself now

"To allow yourself to play with another person is no small risk. It means allowing yourself to be open, to be exposed, to be hurt. It is the human equivalent of the dog rolling on its back—I know you won't hurt me, even though you can. It is the dog putting its mouth around your hand and never biting down. To play requires trust and love."

"Time was mathematically explicable; it was the heart—the part of the brain represented by the heart—that was the mystery."

The best gaslighter award goes to this narrator

"Why is it that the very best person is always hiding something from other people and is quiet about it? Why not say frankly and immediately what's in your heart, if you know that you're not speaking idly? As it is, everyone looks more severe than they actually are, as though they're all afraid their feelings will hurt if they reveal them too soon..."

The end of this chapter is so 🥲🥲🥲

My girl is back at it again 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

My take is that Moses eventually reached the promised land through the transfiguration at the mountain with Jesus. 🙂

Hoping I could finish this by tomorrow 🙏🏻

What a good run, Joseph. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Had to stop so I could sleep lol damn work 😴

Sad Sunsets :(

Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them. 💯

"Sometimes, when you rewatch a film after a long time, it makes a totally different impression than it did the first time you saw it. Of course, the movie hasn't changed. It's you that's change, and seeing the same film again makes that impossible to forget."

"When I do finally die, I'd like to go quietly, peacefully, and with dignity—that's how I always thought it would happen. But when you're suddenly faced with death, you find yourself willing to accept a helping hand from anyone, even the Devil, in order to stay alive. It's a basic human instinct. Dignity and respectability have gone out the window at that point."

"Maybe that's what's driven all human progress: an insatiable desire for new things."

Woah dude calm down
