I've committed to nothing...and that's just suicide...by tiny, tiny increments.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
Sentimental music has this great way of taking you back somewhere at the same time that it takes you forward, so you feel nostagic and hopeful all at the same time.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
Hard is trying to rebuild yourself, piece by piece, with no instruction book, and no clue as to where all the important bits are supposed to go.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
Sarcasm and compassion are two of the qualities that make life on Earth tolerable.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
What came first – the music or the misery? Did I listen to the music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to the music? Do all those records turn you into a melancholy person?
Quote by -Nick Hornby
The plain state of being human is dramatic enough for anyone; you don't need to be a heroin addict or a performance poet to experience extremity. You just have to love someone.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
It's no good pretending that any relationship has a future if your record collections disagree violently or if your favorite films wouldn't even speak to each other if they met at a party.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
When you're unhappy, I guess everything in the world - reading, eating, sleeping - has something buried somewhere inside it that just makes you unhappier.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
I lost the plot for a while then. And I lost the subplot, the script, the soundtrack, the intermission, my popcorn, the credits, and the exit sign.

I've been thinking with my guts since I was fourteen years old, and frankly speaking, between you and me, I have come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
…I've had a bad week." What's happened?" Nothing's happened. I've had a bad week in my head, is all.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
We spent all those years talking about stuff we had in common, and the last few months noticing all the ways we were different and it broke both of our hearts.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
Telling me I can do anything I want is like pulling the plug out of the bath and then telling the water it can go anywhere it wants. Try it, and see what happens.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
It seems to me now that the plain state of being human is dramatic enough for anyone; you don't need to be a heroin addict or a performance poet to experience extremity. You just have to love someone.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
I'm a good person. In most ways. But I'm beginning to think that being a good person in most ways doesn't count for anything very much, if you're a bad person in one way.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
It's no wonder we're all such a mess, is it? We're like Tom Hanks in Big. Little boys and girls trapped in adult bodies and forced to get on with it.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
Most people have a rope that ties them to someone, and that rope can be short or it can be long. (Be long. Belong. Get it?) You don't know how long, though. It's not your choice.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
One could argue that most of the trouble in the world is caused by introspection.

There had been times when he knew, somewhere in him, that he would get used to it, whatever it was, because he had learnt that some hard things became softer after a very little while.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
It's a mystery of human chemistry and I don't understand it, some people, as far as their senses are concerned, just feel like home.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
Love, it turns out, is as undemocratic as money, so it accumulates around people who have plenty of it already: the sane, the healthy, the lovable.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
When you're unhappy, I guess everything in the world - reading, eating, sleeping - has something buried somewhere inside it that just makes you unhappier.

One day, maybe not in the next few weeks, but certainly in the conceivable future, someone will be able to refer to me without using the word 'arse' somewhere in the sentence.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
This thing about looking for someone less different... It only really worked, he realized, if you were convinced that being you wasn't so bad in the first place.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
That’s why; he’s worried about how his life is turning out, and he’s lonely, and lonely people are the bitterest of them all
Quote by -Nick Hornby
I fell in love with football as I was later to fall in love with women: suddenly, inexplicably, uncritically, giving no thought to the pain or disruption it would bring with it.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
When your sad--like really sad--you only want to be with other people who are sad.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
My friends don't seem to be friends at all but people whose phone numbers I haven't lost.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
I don't believe in Heaven or anything. But I want to be the kind of person that qualifies for entry anyway.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
And another way of explaining it is to say that shit happens, and there's no space too small, too dark and airless and fucking hopeless, for people to crawl into.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
The truth will set you free. Either that or it'll get you a punch in the nose.
Quote by -Nick Hornby
There are many differences between a baby and an I-Pod. And one of the biggest is, no ones going to mug you for your baby.
