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

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

"I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else."

"It has shown me that everything is illuminated in the light of the past. It is always along the side of us...on the inside, looking out."

"I'm sorry for my inability to let unimportant things go, for my inability to hold on to the important things."

"Writing's funny, it's like walking down a hall in the dark looking for the light switch, and suddenly you find it, flip it on, and then you discover the hallway you passed through is papered with the novel you've written."
