Kindle Notes & Highlights
Life is growth. If we stop growing, we are as good as dead.
“The world has become a dark place in recent years,” Robert says. Conrad shakes his head. “It always was. People are just paying attention.”
Jessica and I didn’t have a falling-out—I still think of her as my best friend. There was no big fight, no disagreement. But sometimes it feels like something so irrevocable happened between us, and the fact that I can’t put my finger on when makes it worse. If there was a fight, we could make up, apologize, recover. But you can’t say sorry for a slow dissolve.
It’s like all the things she had believed, the deep truths she assigned to the universe, were now girlish fancies, silly dreams she was too mature to entertain.
