Being human totally sucks most of the time. Videogames are the only thing that make life bearable.
People who live in glass houses should shut the fuck up.
I quickly learned that the OASIS was the best thing that had ever happened to me.
Going outside is highly overrated.
I was happy to accept reality for what it was, a miserable state of affairs that I couldn't do anything about.
It's not the journey that counts, but who's at your side.
I created the OASIS because I never felt at home in the real world.
I wish someone had just told me the truth right up front, as soon as I was old enough to understand it.
As terrifying and painful as reality can be, it's also the only place where you can find true happiness.
You'd be amazed how much research you can get done when you have no life whatsoever.
I had a clear shot, and I took it. That's how I win.
I was determined to be successful, which required a lot of sacrifice.
