Quotes by Rob Sheffield  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“It’s the same with people who say, ‘Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’ Even people who say this must realize that the exact opposite is true. What doesn’t kill you maims you, cripples you, leaves you weak, makes you whiny and full of yourself at the same time. The more pain, the more pompous you get. Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you incredibly annoying.”
Rob Sheffield, Love Is a Mix Tape: Life and Loss, One Song at a Time

“When we die, we will turn into songs, and we will hear each other and remember each other.”
Rob Sheffield, Love Is a Mix Tape: Life and Loss, One Song at a Time

“The times you lived through, the people you shared those times with — nothing brings it all to life like an old mix tape. It does a better job of storing up memories than actual brain tissue can do. Every mix tape tells a story. Put them together, and they can add up to the story of a life.”
Rob Sheffield, Love Is a Mix Tape: Life and Loss, One Song at a Time
