“Morality means sacrificing your personal interest for the interest of the group and being immoral means keeping the interest of the self above the interest of the group. In the real world, you have to be a little selfish (immoral) to take care of yourself and accumulate the riches, and only then can you afford to become selfless (moral) by distributing what you have accumulated.”

“It’s crazy how much I wish I didn’t care. I wish, so much, all the time, that I didn’t give a shit about this sort of thing—that I could be like Warner, a frozen, unforgiving island; or even like Adam, who’s found his happiness in family, in his relationship with his brother—but I’m like neither. Instead, I’m a big, raw, bleeding heart, and I spend my days pretending not to notice that I want more. That I need more. Maybe it sounds weird to say, but I know I could love the shit out of someone. I feel it, in my heart. This capacity to love. To be romantic and passionate. Like it’s a superpower I have. A gift, even. And I’ve got no one to share it with.”
