  • "Years ago my mother used to say to me...'In this world Elwood, you must be oh-so-smart or oh-so-pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant" (Harvey Bunny, sourced from John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed)
  • "Every electron is identical, but every love is different" (Alan Lightman, A Sense of the Mysterious - "Words")
  • “I think that if you really love someone, it doesn’t mean you never hate them a little bit or spend all your time together, harmoniously and happily.
