"I loved this Note to Self "Anger doesn't make you ungrateful for surviving. Sometimes it's just proof that you understand exactly what survival costs you."
This chapter definitely highlights the things that those around you will not understand. Anger was constantly coming for me during grief and I came out of it with the same sentiment. Izzy is the only one I've experienced this with because nobody talks about it." — Jun 02, 2026 01:06PM

“To me, the thing about friendship that makes it so singular is that it’s a relationship that’s central to our identity in that it doesn’t necessarily benefit us in any tangible way. It’s a relationship we don’t have to pursue – if we decide to stop being friends one day, nothing will happen, no one’s there to legislate or adjudicate it. It’s two people who every day choose to keep it going, and in that way it’s very powerful because it’s one you choose to work on, and you choose to without any agreement; it’s an unspoken bond.”

“If the worst thing a physicist could say about a statement is that it was “false,” the best thing he could say is that it was “interesting.”

“Usually, you could rely on Americans to believe the worst about their heroes, but nobody wanted to hear that America’s ascent to the Moon had been made with a ladder of bones.”
