4/30/2006 Cosmic Tony can make some wishes come truelast few quotes from the book:
"I liked thinking about Cosmic Tony more than I liked thinking about God."
"Is that so terrible, to be so positive about something?"
"everyone knows how to talk, and no one knows what to say."
(this reminded me of : "nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got somthing to say but nothing comes out, when they move their lips just a buncha Jibberish.." -Eminem)
spoiler warning - begin "We all spend so much time not saying what we want, because we know we can't have it. And because it sounds ungracious, or ungrateful, or disloyal, or childish, or banal. Or because we're so desperate to pretend that things are OK, really, that confessing to ourselves they're not looks like a bad move."
"I had wanted to kill myself not because I hated living, but because I loved it. [...] We were up on the roof because we couldn't find a way back into life, and being shut out of it like that... It just f***ing kills you, man."
spoiler warning - end
"Asking the head I have now to explain its own thinking is as pointless as dialling your own telephone number on your telephone."
"It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize that other people have heads..."
"perhaps getting something you want is never a coincidence."
-- A Long Way Down - Nick Hornby
