Fredrik Backman
“How many damn books have you actually read?”
“Not nearly enough,” he smiles.”
Fredrik Backman, My Friends

Fredrik Backman
“That’s why rich adults hate the sort of thing that Louisa paints on the walls of buildings, not because they love walls, but because they hate the fact that there are beautiful things that are free.”
Fredrik Backman, My Friends

Harper Lee
“We Americans like to put our culture into disposable containers. Nowhere is this more evident than in the way we treat our past. We discard villages, towns, even cities, when they grow old, and we are now in the process of discarding our recorded history, not in a shredder, but by rewriting it as romance.”
Harper Lee, The Land of Sweet Forever: Stories and Essays

Sarah Vowell
“Garfield must have giggled jotting down the admonition to remember that political offices "were created, not for the benefit of incumbents or their supporters, but for the service of the Government.”
Sarah Vowell, Assassination Vacation

Fredrik Backman
“People say that anxiety is fear for no reason, but Ted’s brain is very helpful when it comes to providing suggestions. Once he read a book that said that people with neuropsychiatric disorders need to “make friends with their brain,” but Ted and Ted’s brain are not friends, they’re classmates, forced to do a group assignment called “life” together. And it’s not going great.”
Fredrik Backman, My Friends
