Time was passing like a hand waving from a train I wanted to... - Jonathan Safran Foer

"Time was passing like a hand waving from a train I wanted to be on. I hope you never have to think about anything as much as I think about you."

"I think and think and think, I‘ve thought myself out of happiness one million times, but never once into it."

"Why are you leaving me?He wrote, I do not know how to live.I do not know either but I am trying.I do not know how to try.There were some things I wanted to tell him. But I knew they would hurt him. So i buried them and let them hurt me"

"You cannot protect yourself from sadness without protecting yourself from happiness."

"Grandfather informs me that is not possible."
