The beauty of literature is that it allows us to live multiple lives, to experience different worlds, to feel the emotions of others.
The truth is that life is delicious, horrible, charming, frightful, sweet, bitter, and that is everything.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
Always listen to your gut. It knows what your head hasn’t figured out yet.
