I love Darling. I always have. You've no idea how many times he took up for me when no one else would. How many fights he fought for me.

Marriage is the lightning rod that absorbs anxiety and stress from all other sources, past and present. When marriage has a firm foundation of solid friendship and mutual respect, it can tolerate a fair amount of raw emotion.

I think I was righteous. I saw myself as the good guy in my own movie. I didn't get into many fights when I was younger, but when I did, they were righteous.

I was still being selfish and arrogant, but I was focused on what was fair and unfair. — Jo Nesbo

Tonally, there was no discussion; I just don't know any other way to do it. I don't want to make people feel bad, and I don't want to make their problems into a joke.

I want to make jokes, but I also want to make a decision that is fair. — John Hodgman
