High Fidelity Quotes

A few more quotes from the novel I finished about week ago, Nick Hornby's High Fidelity.

“People worry about kids playing with guns, and teenagers watching violent videos; we are scared that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands—literally thousands—of songs about broken hearts and rejection and pain and misery and loss." 

Martin Dimitrievski

A sad song to help that quote make sense...

“Is it so wrong, wanting to be home with your record collection? It’s not like collecting records is like collecting stamps, or beermats, or antique thimbles. There’s a whole world in here, a nicer, dirtier, more violent, more peaceful, more colorful, sleazier, more dangerous, more loving world that I live in; there is history, and geography, and poetry, an countless other things I should have studied at school, including music.”

I know I always say it, but I'll get around to writing a review of this book! The first week of November will be "Catching up on Book Reviews" week. I'll try to post some poetry for you soon as well!
