精彩摘录
- "我知道我更渴望像马修和天使冰王那样，因为当你说你在什么事情上做得好时，这会让你更加努力去做得更好，而当你说你做不好什么事情时，这会让你更加努力去做得更糟糕。"
- "这就像仅凭大人们认为这是个好主意，我们也会认为那是个好主意一样。但是小孩子们的想法和大人们是不一样的。大人们花了那么多年的时间去思考，想法和别人越来越趋同，因为你与别人生活的时间越久，你自己独特的想法就越少，与别人的想法就越像。但孩子们是新人，所以，我们的想法仍然是更加正常一些。"
- "Every relationship has a kind of pattern, I guess, and maybe the pattern is more important than the stuff that makes up the pattern."
- "The first place we went to is call Organix and it is an organic and vegan restaurant, which is kind of lie going to the doctor for dinner. On the sign outside, under the name Organix, are the words "Helping the Earth Grow," which makes no sense because the Earth is not getting any bigger, which is s"
- "I guess that there are a lot of sad things in the world and sometimes eating turkey with the people you love makes you happy and maybe it would make the turkey happy to know that this was happening with it's body. Probably not, but maybe."
- "This is something Mom always does. She says something nice to me and then yells at me right after. Like she couldn't just say, "You're very sweet." She had to say, "You're very sweet but take the bike out of my room." And even though it should make my feelings hurt to be yelled at, I also like it be"
- "It's easy to like someone on the Internet. When you're with someone in person you have to see all of their weird things. Even if you're best friends with someone on the Internet, you can't just sit with them quietly. And sometimes, when Matthew and I are just sitting with each other quietly, I like "
- "Have a good night, which is just an arbitrary illusion created by the earth blocking the sun"
用户评论
The Ashram and Mom那篇温暖哭 “Because going through a hard life with someone else is better than going through an easy life alone.”
本打算直接去图书馆啃刑诉为此连爪机都没带，可天气实在太好了出门时又手欠带上这本，最后竟在英院树影下一鼓作气from cover to cover（连Acknowledgement都看了，是的他感谢了Mia和安娜）其间玩了会儿奶牛纹的猫。幽默小品看得少，之前猛补伍迪艾伦就好像紧急征用评价维度迅速建立“experienced humorist”的形象。从小粉红到打嗝他的确进步了，驾驭的题材也拓宽了。看history、dating和language三个部分尤其能感受到和老爷子的相似，那种ridiculously profound and profoundly ridiculous的劲儿实在让读者心情复杂，不过总觉得还是欠一丢丢稳重自信。总之加油啦。
不是那种浅显的幽默，有些梗甚至需要点时间来反映，但是很有智慧，不是小聪明，而是智慧，杰西除了演戏以外，写书完全不输啊。
看完后就好想给Jesse一个拥抱（。
knowing someone really well is more important than liking them.
在卷西的世界里连Jesus Christ都是个话唠。每一篇都超有创意，带着一些丧丧的幽默感，都是很有趣的小文章。还是最喜欢《吃鲷鱼使我打嗝》，九岁小男孩眼里满是成年人的酸涩。
很有卷老师絮絮叨叨的风格。好喜欢restaurant reviews 的部分That’s why I’m giving it 4 out of 5:)
比喻很奇妙，但是就是不算很来电。。。
卷毛真的太逗了，真像伍迪艾伦
audiobook太好玩了！！
