Kindle Notes & Highlights
I knew I’d be late for my flight. I’m late for almost everything. That’s why I booked an aisle seat in the first place.
Haahahahahaha
“From experience, I can tell you that if you go around trying to figure out what’s fair in life or whether you deserve something or not, that’s a rabbit hole that is hard to climb out of.”
The difference between life and death could be as simple and as uncomfortably slight as a step you take in either direction. Which means that I am here today, alive today, because I made the right choices, however brief and insignificant they felt at the time. I made the right choices.
In general, I find that when you are doing something you are not supposed to be doing, the best course of action is to act as if you are absolutely supposed to be doing it.
Because that is truly all I want in this world. I want to try to do something myself, knowing that when I have nothing left, someone will take me the rest of the way.
Say it louder!
“His penis is small,” she says. “Seriously, like a golf pencil.” And then she starts laughing. “Oh, it feels good to admit that. I don’t have to keep pretending his penis isn’t small.”
I actually laughed out loud to this. 🤣 We hate MARK!
When you sit there and wish things had happened differently, you can’t just wish away the bad stuff. You have to think about all the good stuff you might lose, too. Better just to stay in the now and focus on what you can do better in the future.
Maybe one day we will end up at the same place at the same time.
If you love someone, if you think you could make them happy for the rest of your life together, then nothing should stop you. You should be prepared to take them as they are and deal with the consequences.
Can you tell I liked Ethan more than Mark?!?
“I’m fat now,” I tell him. “That’s OK.” “No, really, I’m growing a double chin.” “I have back acne,” he says. “Who cares?” I laugh through my tears. “Pretty soon I won’t be able to reach my feet.” “Then I’ll put your socks on. What did I tell you? There’s nothing you can do to get rid of me,” he says.
“As a man who has been trying to run into you for months, let me assure you how rare it is that two specific people’s paths will cross.”
Okay but Henry was cute here
multiverse theory.
everything that is possible happens. That means that when you flip a quarter, it comes down heads and tails. Not heads or tails. Every time you flip a coin and it comes up heads, you are merely in the universe where the coin came up heads. There is another version of you out there, created the second the quarter flipped, who saw it come up tails. Every second of every day, the world is splitting further and further into an infinite number of parallel universes, where everything that could happen is happening.
