But that isn’t what happened; what happened was that I heard Thunder Road and loved it, and I’ve listened to it at (alarmingly) frequent intervals ever since. Thunder Road really only reminds me of itself, and I suppose, of my life since I was eighteen - that is to say, of nothing much and too much.” — Nick Hornby
