Quotes by Heather Harpham  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I hope what she hears are directions for happiness; the happiness blueprint. But I don’t think there is one. We find happiness, if we find it at all, on accident. We trip over it on our own way somewhere else. It’s woven out of the oddest circumstances.”
Heather Harpham, Happiness: The Crooked Little Road to Semi-Ever After

“We act out of a Molotov cocktail of conscuious and unconscious desires. And also, we just do stuff.”
Heather Harpham, Happiness: The Crooked Little Road to Semi-Ever After

“everything. If you are lucky, you meet four or five people in a lifetime who you’re totally comfortable with. Comfortable in a way that causes your best self to surge forward. With them, rowing through life’s quotidian mess is an adventure. I thought of my mom and me, twenty years earlier, cracking up as the Corolla filled with water.”
Heather Harpham, Happiness: The Crooked Little Road to Semi-Ever After
