“I don't know where this pressure came from. I can't blame my parents because it has always felt internal. Like any other parent, my mother celebrated the A grades and the less-than-A grades she felt there was no need to tell anybody about. But not acknowledging the effort that ended in a less than perfect result impacted me as a child. If I didn't win, then we wouldn't tell anyone that I had even competed to save us the embarrassment of acknowledging that someone else was better. Keeping the secret made me think that losing was something to be ashamed of, and that unless I was sure I was going to be the champion there was no point in trying. And there was certainly no point to just having fun.”

“Ya, aku bisa punya dua wajah, tapi tidak bisa keduanya kupakai berbarengan. Dengan kamu, aku memasang wajah haha-hehe dan serba meledek. Kalau lagi di kantor, kupakai wajah serius. Tugasku memeriksa lamaran dan biodata orang-orang yang cari kerja di kantor kami. Terserah padaku mau merekomendasi atau menolak mereka. Beberapa dari mereka, dalam suratnya mengungkapkan diri dalam pose yang sangat mutakhir, trendi, dengan segala macam ungkapan klise, dengan slogannya, dengan segala optimisme yang sesuai persyaratan. Tanpa perlu ketemu atau bicara dengan mereka pun aku sudah bisa benci pada mereka.”
