being human rocks

favorite quote from The Host:

"And he was my friend. Not that he wouldn't kill me if things turned out that way, but he wouldn't like doing it. With humans, what more could you ask of a friend?" p. 211

ha!ha! :) I liked how Meyer described how wretched humanity can be, but I also think she did a good job of showing how all the bad stuff is worth it because we get to experience all the good and wonderful stuff too. You know, the whole "there must be opposition in all things" idea. I found a lot of Meyer's "Mormonism" showing through her writing in this way.

just so you know, I'd kill any one of you if I had to. I wouldn't like it, but I would do it. that's true friendship. :)
