Scott Westerfeld Quote

Life sucked all right. It sucked hard, because it was random and terrifying and too easily lost. Life was full of death cults and psychopaths, bad timing and bad people. Life was broken...Because you could make one mistake in righteous anger, and lose the person you most loved.But everything that sucked about life also proved that it was priceless, because otherwise all of that wouldn't hurt so bad.
