“Mereka mengetik doa panjang dengan kata-kata indah, berharap mendapat simpati dari orang-orang yang bahkan tidak peduli. Mereka mengunggah permohonan kepada Tuhan, tapi siapa sebenarnya yang mereka tuju? Tuhan, atau algoritma? Mereka ingin malaikat mencatat doa mereka, tapi siapa yang mereka harapkan membaca? Langit, atau followers mereka? Dengar baik-baik: malaikat tidak akan repot screenshot doamu. Tuhan tidak butuh tagar agar mendengar permintaanmu. Jika kau benar-benar ingin berdoa, lakukan dalam hening, dalam keikhlasan, bukan sebagai tontonan. Karena jika doamu hanya untuk dilihat manusia, maka selamat—kau sudah mendapatkan yang kau cari: perhatian mereka. Tapi jangan berharap ada balasan dari langit untuk sesuatu yang niatnya saja sudah bengkok sejak awal.”

“Ways to Prove that you love Nell De Luca 1. Tell her. Every day. Three times a day. As many times as it takes. 2. Never choose anything else over her. Not football. Not your own stubbornness. Nothing. 3. Be there whether she wants to go skinny-dipping or wants to study. Make sure she knows that she’s the adventure, not anything else. 4. Always tell her how amazing her food is (okay . . . that one is partly for you, too, because it means you get to keep eating her food). 5. Give her the best sex of her life (also works out pretty well for you). 6. Teach her whatever she wants to know, and learn from her, too. She’s a fucking genius. 7. Tell her she’s a fucking genius. All the time. When she doubts it and when she doesn’t. Just tell her. 8. Never walk away after a fight. Don’t. Fucking. Do it. 9. Prove you love her (preferably in bed, but that’s optional) once a day. Three times a day. As many times as it takes. 10. Be worthy of her. Not by playing football or pretending to be something you’re not. By being the man she makes you feel like you are. Strong and smart and kind and so damn lucky to have her.”
