"Sometimes people have to be allowed to have something to live for in order to survive everything else."
"The worst thing we know about other people is that we are dependent on them. That their actions affect our lives. Not just the people we choose, the people we like, but all the rest of them: the idiots. You who stand in front of us in every line, who can't drive properly, who like bad television shows and talk too loud in restaurants and whose kids infect our kids with the winter vomiting bug at preschool. You who park badly and steal our jobs and vote for the wrong party. You also influence our lives, every second.
Dear God, how we hate you for that."
From Us Against You, by Fredrik Backman
