Here are my favorite quotes from Something Like Happy by Sasha Greene:
She would tell her to go for it. To not be afraid. To fall in love . But it wasn’t the love she was worried about, it was the loss on the other side of it.

‘Life never works out the way you expect . It’s full of surprises.’
🌹
‘They say that everything passes. But I don’t think it does. I think emotions are like the sea. It’s sometimes smooth and sunny, and sometimes the wind is blowing so hard you think you’re going to sink.’
🌹
Lose a leg, he thought viciously, and everyone feels sorry for you. Lose yourself, and nobody cares.
🌹
‘I’m not going to rubbish anyone else’s taste in books. Just because it’s not for me, doesn’t mean it’s a bad book.’
🌹
‘How is it possible to be happy and sad at the same time? Because that’s what I’m feeling today. Like there’s a black cloud over everything. But then you just made me laugh. Which just feels weird.’

‘They say that everything passes. But I don’t think it does. I think emotions are like the sea. It’s sometimes smooth and sunny, and sometimes the wind is blowing so hard you think you’re going to sink.’
🌹
‘But it’s when you think you’re just about to drown that someone else tends to pass by with a life raft.’
🌹
‘I said, depression lies.’
🌹
‘Whatever you’re feeling right now, it’s not you. Depression lies to you. It tells you things that aren’t true.’

His heart pounded at the thought, but it was the easiest way he could think of. One simple jump, and he’d be gone.
