ericarobyn 's review for:
Yes Man
by Danny Wallace
This was a bit of a let down for me. Overall, I DID really enjoyed the book, but I felt that it just dragged. I would definitely recommend this to friends, but I wouldn't read it again.
My favorite lines:
"...make a note of all the times you could have said yes to something. And junk about where that yes could have led you. It might come in handy one day."
"I ha-haed, probably a little too ha-hard..."
"But sometimes to look forward, you had to look back."
"If there were such a thing as the Grown-up Scouts, I'd probably get a badge for that."
"Sometimes the biggest risk is never taking one!"
"Sometimes inspiration comes from the strangest places. Even the ordinary can be magical. Be open to it.”
“It’s incredible what can happen…when you allow it to."
“It was maybe thirty-five degrees, and I was sweaty and my boxer shorts already appeared to be trying to attempt an expedition of their own, exploring areas of my body usually reserved for someone with a qualification.”
“Take the stupidest thing you’ve ever done. At least it’s done. It’s over. It’s gone. We can all learn from our mistakes and heal and move on. But it’s harder to learn or heal or move on from something that hasn’t happened; something we don't know and is therefore indefinable; something which could very easily have been the best thin in our lives, if only we’d taken the plunge, if only we’d held our breath and stood up and done it, if only we’d said yes.”
