“After awhile you could get used to anything.”

“I could get used to anything-that is, not really get used, but somehow voluntarily consent to endure it”

“A man could get used to anything if he had to.”

“After awhile, life becomes technical college. You can’t be anything you want to be. You can be, like, twenty things. That’s it.” - "Refund" from Shake Away These Constant Days”

“The way I pictured it, all this grief would be like a winter night when you're standing outside. You'll warm up once you get used to the cold. Except after you've been out there for awhile, you feel the warmth draining out of you and you realize the opposite is happening; you're getting colder and colder, as the body heat you brought outside with you seeps out of your skin. Instead of getting used to it, you get weaker the longer you endure it.”

“Oh, sometimes I think it is of no use to make friends. They only go out of your life after awhile and leave a hurt that is worse than the emptiness before they came.”
