Anyway, I want to remember that love can happen. Because there is life after not having a life. I never expected love to happen. What was I expecting from life, then? Doug Coupland
Rick feels almost the way he used to halfway through his third drink, his favorite moment, the way he wishes all moments in life could feel: heightened with the sense that anything could happen at any moment--that being alive is important, because just when you least expect it, you might receive exactly what you least expect. Doug Coupland
This was not a good idea coming home for Christmas. I'm too old. Years ago, coming back from schools or trips, I always expected some sort of new perspective or fresh insight about the family on returning. That doesn't happen anymore-the days of revelation about my parents, at least, are over... its time to move on. I think we'd all appreciate that. Doug Coupland
Unhappiness is something we are never taught about; we are taught to expect happiness, but never a Plan B to use to use when the happiness doesn't arrive. Doug Coupland
We are changed souls; we don't look at things the same way anymore. For there was a time when we expected the worst. But then the worst happened, did it not? And so we will never be surprised again. Doug Coupland
If you don't have a spiritual practice in place when times are good, you can't expect to suddenly develop one during a moment of crisis. Doug Coupland
For there was once a time when we expected the worst. But then the worst happened, did it not? And so we will never be surprised ever again. Doug Coupland
Doug Coupland quote: "Never loan a book to someone if you expect to get it back...."
Never loan a book to someone if you expect to get it back. Loaning books is the same as giving them away. Doug Coupland
