    Nicholas Sparks
    “Distance can ruin even the best of intentions.

    But I suppose it depends on how you look at it.

    Distance just adds a richness you would not otherwise get.

    When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their stories and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones. Not the ones from the past.”
    Nicholas Sparks, The Rescue
