Two quotes I loved from Annie Hartnett’s book, Unlikely Animals: A Novel.
“Not knowing what happens next and the fear associated with the not-knowing, that uncertainty and anticipation is what makes us human.”
“That’s why we like living with animals so much; they exhibit their joy so outwardly, remind us how to be better alive.”
