Kindle Notes & Highlights
There is some wisdom to be had in taking the gloomy view and looking upon the world as a kind of hell. Arthur Schopenhauer, Parerga and Paralipomena, 1851
Marty and she had thought they’d be safe out here. Safer than Boston. Safe—what a joke. Nobody’s safe. Why were they naive enough to think that you could live anywhere in America and be safe?
Life is a cascade of nows falling on top of one another without meaning or purpose.
Great waves of anguish and anger. Did this make them smile? Forcing virtuous people to do terrible things? Every human being walking this earth can be forced to violate his or her deepest beliefs and principles. Isn’t that hilarious?
