"The truth is, she's a weirdo. Just like you were. Are. A glorious, perfectly weird weirdo. Like all kids before they forget how to be exactly how weird they really are.

Before they learn that all the things they are and about all the things they will never be." Page 202, Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu
