Nick Hornby

Everyone knows how to talk, and no one knows what to say.

Sentimental music has this great way of taking you back somewhere at the same time that it takes you forward, so you feel nostagic and hopeful all at the same time.

Sometimes you know you`ve got a chance with a girl because she wants to fight with you. If the world wasn`t so messed up, it wouldn`t be like that. If the world was normal, a girl being nice to you would be a good sign, but in the real world, it isn`t.

Sarcasm and compassion are two of the qualities that make life on earth tolerable.
