David Nicholls: Quotes about thinking

“I think reality is overrated.”

“In eight years not a day has gone by when she hasn’t thought of him. She misses him and she wants him back. I want my best friend back, she thinks, because without him nothing is good and nothing is right.”

“So do you think it's true what they say? About girls liking bastards?'
'He's not a bastard. He's an idiot.'
'Do girls like idiots then?”

“And you stupid, stupid woman, stupid for caring, stupid for thinking that he cared.”

“As a matter of fact, I think there are more things important in life than "relationships.”

“…and you smile back and try not to think about the fact that you have nothing, absolutely nothing, to say to each other.”

“I want my best friend back, she thinks, because without him nothing is good and nothing is right.”
