"Tampon commercial, detergent commercial, maxipad commercial, Windex commercial. You'd think all women do is clean and bleed."

"She's easy to like. I've never understood why that's considered a compliment -- that just anyone could like you."

"He glides through life with that charming-Nicky grin, his beloved-child entitlement, his fibs and shirkings, his shortcomings and selfishness, and no one calls him on anything. I think this experience will make him a better person. Or at least a sorrier one. Fucker."

"...people didn't get to turn Amy into everyone's beloved best friend just because it was emotionally expedient." it's v ironic that people only sing praises of ppl when they're in mortal peril/dead, even praises that aren't real. ig being in those situations pedestal an entity above all other living entities: you probs won't be around any longer so ok you'll get credit for being a perfect person, even if you aren't

amy's treasure hunt notes sound so sinister to a suspicious reader (and ok fine i watched like 20% of the movie to get an inkling) but so convincing to a clueless husband. a clueless asshole husband. then again, i don't know the whole story to actually confirm his assholeness as portrayed by his own narrative and amy's diary entries but it certainly seems to be that way so far.
