Friendly Quotes

Because you can never go from going out to being friends, just like that. It's a lie. It's just something that people say they'll do to take the permanence out of a breakup.

But messier.

You may look back on your life and accept it as good or evil. But it is far, far harder to admit that you have been completely unimportant; that in the great sum of things all a man's endless grapplings are no more significant than the scuttlings of a cockroach.

I can look futility in the face and still see promise in the stars.

To add insult to injury, most Americans never knew that, and most Mexicans have never forgotten it.
