“I don’t know how to be myself. It’s like I’m permanently outside myself. Like, you could push your hands straight through me if you wanted to. And I can see the type of man I want to be versus the type of man I actually am and I know that I’m doing it but I’m incapable of what needs to be done. I’m like Pinocchio, a wooden boy. Not a real boy. And it kills me.”
“So I’ve tried to make this book as dense as possible, like a neutron star. And if you think I came up with that simile by googling ‘What stuff is most dense?’, you’d be wrong. I already knew neutron stars were maybe dense before I googled it to make sure.”
“Cinema helps us to remember that although we all have the right to shine, some of us must shine in the background, out of focus, and not too brightly.”
