“So I told them the truth: the hours are terrible, the pay is terrible, the conditions are terrible; you’re underappreciated, unsupported, disrespected and frequently physically endangered. But there’s no better job in the world.”

“Her extremely posh eight year-old asks her a question about the economy (!), and before she answers it, she asks her extremely posh five year-old "Do you know what the economy is, darling?""Yes mummy, it's the part of the plane that's terrible". This is how revolutions start.” ― Adam Kay, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor
“Don’t be ashamed for liking them. The backlash against the PSL is a perfect example of how toxic masculinity permeates even the most mundane things in life. If masses of women like something, our society automatically begins to mock them. Just like romance novels. If women like them, they must be a joke, right?” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“That’s why fiction resonates with people. It speaks to universal truths.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“a great doctor must have a huge heart and a distended aorta through which pumps a vast lake of compassion and human kindness.” ― Adam Kay, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor
“Truth is like poetry.And most people fucking hate poetry.” ― Adam McKay, The Big Short: A Screenplay
“the depth of the lows is the price you pay for the height of the highs.” ― Adam Kay, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor
“You guys read romance novels?”“We call them manuals.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“Men are idiots. We complain that women are so mysterious and shit, and we never know what they want. We fuck up our relationships because we convince ourselves that it’s too hard to figure them out. But the real problem is with us. We think we’re not supposed to feel things and cry and express ourselves. We expect women to do all the emotional labor in a relationship and then act confused when they give up on us.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“You don’t cure depression, the same way you don’t cure asthma; you manage it. I’m the inhaler he’s decided to go with and I should be pleased he’s gone this long without an attack.” ― Adam Kay, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor
“human beings are a work in progress, and we don’t all change at the same pace” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“If a man wants to leave you, wave goodbye and lock the doors. You've got better things to do than chase a lost cause.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“From the most insignificant of actions can come the most serious of consequences.” ― Adam Kay, This Is Going To Hurt
“There’s no force on Earth as strong as a woman who is good and fed up.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, Undercover Bromance
“The man tugged on his suspenders. “Whatcha knockin’ down?”“Patriarchal power structures.”He blinked.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“Romance novels are primarily written by women for women, and they’re entirely about how they want to be treated and what they want out of life and in a relationship. We read them to be more comfortable expressing ourselves and to look at things from their perspective.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
“I notice that every patient on the ward has a pulse of 60 recorded in their observation chart so I surreptitiously inspect the healthcare assistant’s measurement technique. He feels the patient’s pulse, looks at his watch and meticulously counts the number of seconds per minute.” ― Adam Kay, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor
“Fear is a powerful motivator, but so is love.” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, Undercover Bromance
“We shouldn’t assume that women and girls don’t know the difference between reality and fantasy. We don’t fear that men who read murder mysteries and thrillers are going to have a hard time not becoming serial killers, so why should we assume that a girl won’t know that she doesn’t have to change from a mermaid to human in order to find love just because of a movie?” ― Lyssa Kay Adams, The Bromance Book Club
