“It’s not that I’m unaware of the suffering and the soon-to-be-more suffering in the world, it’s that I know the suffering exists beside wet grass and a bright blue sky recently scrubbed by rain. The beauty and the suffering are equally true.”

“We learn our first lessons about money as children, and these shape much of our ideas about it. We learn these lessons from our parents, but from others also.

― Alexander Chee, How to Write an Autobiographical Novel
