Additional quotes by Alain de Botton

There may be significant things to learn about people by looking at what annoys them most.

No one properly gets, or can fully sympathize with, anyone else.

It is not necessarily at home that we best encounter our true selves. The furniture insists that we cannot change because it does not; the domestic setting keeps us tethered to the person we are in ordinary life, who may not be who we essentially are.
