“I'm not going to lie to you and say it gets easier, because it doesn't. It's just that you get used to it. The human animal has an amazing capacity to get used to almost anything.”
Andrea Speed, Infected: Life After Death“I love you. We’re getting married, and that’s the way it is. Get used to it.”
Julie Garwood, The Ideal Man“I don't think anyone ever gets over anything in life they merely get used to it.”
Douglas Coupland“It smelled pretty rank, but I was getting used to the smell of death, as much as anyone could get used to it.”
Amanda Hocking, Hollowland“You can't escape the existential suffering of life as long as you are living. So get used to it.”
Debasish Mridha“The old joke is that psychiatrists are doctors who can't stand the sight of blood. Maybe they can't stand it, but if they work where I work, they damn well better get used to it.At least surgeons and prizefighters get to wear gloves”
Mike Bartos, BASH“Once I accepted the fact that I was bad luck, I shied away from group activities. And groups. And activities. I started spending a lot of time in my room, tucked under my covers reading books. There’s only so much damage a book can do, and I wasn’t worried about hurting myself. Accidentally hurting yourself is way better than hurting other people.Sure, I got lonely for a while. But getting invited to slumber parties just wasn’t worth the stress of wondering if I might accidentally burn down the house with my flat iron or be the only survivor of a freak sleepover massacre. And loneliness is just like everything else—if you endure it long enough, you get used to it.”
Paula Stokes, Girl Against the Universe“Life is hell, at some point we all just have to get used to it.”
