“There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and an infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”

You’re in a car with a beautiful boy, and you’re trying not to tell him that you love him, and you’re trying to choke down the feeling, and you’re trembling, but he reaches over and he touches you, like a prayer for which no words exist, and you feel your heart taking root in your body, like you’ve discovered something you didn’t even have a name for.”

“أصابك عشق أم رميت بأسهم - فما هذه إلا سجيّة مغرمِ
ألا فاسقني كاسات خمر وغني لي - بذكري سليمى والكمان ونغمي
فدع عنك ذكر العامرية إنني ـ أغار عليها من فمي المتكلمِ
أغار عليها من أبيها وأمها ـ إذا حدثاها بالكلام المغمغمِ
أغار عليها من ثيابها ـ إذا لبستها فوق جسم منعّم
فواللّه لولا اللّه فواللّه ـ لولا اللّه والخوف والحياء
لقبلتها، للثمتها، لعضتها - لضممتها بين العقيق وزمزم
وان حرم الله في شرعه الزنا - فما حرّم التقبيلُ يوماً على الفم
وإن حرمت يوما على دين محمدٍ - فخذها على دين المسيح ابن مريم

أَعُدُّ اللَيالي لَيلَةً بَعدَ لَيلَةٍ - وَقَد عِشتُ دَهراً لا أَعُدُّ اللَيالِيا
أُصلّي فما أدري إذا ما ذكرتُها - أثنتّينِ صلّيتُ العشاء أَم ثمانيا

عشقتك يا ليلى وأنت صغيرة - وأنا ابن سبع ما بلغت الثمانيا
يقولون ليلى في العراق مريضة - ألا ليتني كنت الطبيب المداويا
و قالوا عنك سوداء حبشية - ولولا سواد المسك ما انباع غاليا

بلغوها إذا أتيتم حماها - أنني مت في الغرام فداها
واذكروني لها بكل جميل - فعساها تحن علي عساها
واصحبوها لتربتي فعظامي - تشتهي أن تدوسها قدماها
إن روحى من الضريح تناجيها - وعيني تسير إثر خطاها
لم يشقني يوم القيامة لولا - أملي أنني هناك أراها

تسائلني حلوة المبسم - متى أنت فبّلتني في فمي؟
سلي شفتيك بما حسّتاه - من شفتي شاعر مغرم
ألم تغمضي عندها ناظريك؟ - وبالرّاحتين ألم تحتمي؟
فإن شئت أرجعتها ثانيا - مضاعفة للفم المنعم
فقالت و غضذت بأهدابها - إذا كان حقا فلا تحجم
سأغمض عينيّ كي لا أراك - وما في صنيعك من مأثم
كأنّك في الحلم قبّلتني - فقلت و أفديك أن تحلمي”
