Headshot

Is this a situation where winning counts as winning?

and that this particular match has transitioned, in Kate Heffer’s mind, from a must-win situation into an apathetic period of time, because somehow, miraculously, Kate Heffer has discerned, in the middle of this fight, that this moment, this match, which she thought was the moment around which other moments circled, actually has absolutely no meaning in her life.

What a strange thing, to have children, and to then have those children have children, thinks Rachel’s grandmother. Where do their souls come from

The desire to please people is the desire to not be singular

Nothing makes you believe that the world is meaningless like seeing things burn in a fire

What a sad thing, to be a good girl, thinks Rachel. God, how I hate the sound of it. Good girl, thinks Rachel, is mountains and mountains worse than good boy.

Only people who don’t know the meaning of time put on timers

It’s always better to destroy something if you can’t have it

people are the most scared by what makes zero sense to them but that they cannot, no matter how they try, avoid
