I just don't think it's possible to read this book and not identify with Coley in some way. Amber Benson

And what happens to us—the drama and pain and joy and war and sickness and victory and abuse—why, that’s just the water and sand to erode us. Grind us down. To polish us up, nice and bright. Chuck Palahniuk

They're talking about the beauty of the self and how it can become demolished. Sonia Braga
