Kindle Notes & Highlights
In the beginning there was Nothing but Nothing is unstable so Something came about.
“Happy people are just miserable people you don't know well enough,”
You were a love letter to all good and proper English values: decency, practicality, personal efficacy, neighbourly kindness, moral virtue, sex with the lights off, brilliantly thought out Christmas presents, and goodness, and goodness, and goodness.
You're all blurry now and most of it is just wishful thinking anyway. Maybe all of it. God, I miss you.
No one is guaranteed happiness. It's not a human right. It's a house you have to build yourself. Your family and friends can help, but they're all busy building their own houses too. You're just bitter because you built a shit house.”
