Why Not Me? by Mindy Kaling

“It’s traumatizing to think that a best friend could become just a friend. That’s because there is virtually no difference between an acquaintance and a friend. But the gulf between a friend and a best friend is enormous and profound.” – pg. 27

“It’s weird when you feel your dream slipping away from you. Especially when you have no other dreams.” – pg. 77

“Sure, there are moments of panic and occasional bouts of crying, but there’s also the joy of creating something I love.” – pg. 101

“People talk about confidence without ever bringing up hard work. That’s a mistake.” – pg. 218

“People get scared when you try to do something, especially when it looks like you’re succeeding. People do not get scared when you’re failing.” – pg. 222
