Book cover for Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
This story compelled Marx, in part, because his mother had never fully spoken Japanese, and he believed that was why she had spent most of her adult life lonely and sometimes depressed.

“Enraged, she marched up to the Orchid penthouse and confronted him. “ ‘It’s not possible,’ he said. ‘I thought you had at least a million shares.’ ” She had less than a quarter of that. “Sam said to me, ‘I never intended for that to happen to you,’ and I said to him, ‘It does not matter what you intended!”
Michael Lewis, Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon

“many things and people. Marx’s favorite adjective was “interesting.” The world seemed filled with interesting books to read, interesting plays and movies to see, interesting games to play, interesting food to taste, and interesting people to have sex with and sometimes even to fall in love with. To Marx, it seemed foolish not to love as many things as you could.”
Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

“If Marx at twenty-two had a problem, it was that he was attracted to too many things and people. Marx’s favorite adjective was “interesting.” The world seemed filled with interesting books to read, interesting plays and movies to see, interesting games to play, interesting food to taste, and interesting people to have sex with and sometimes even to fall in love with. To Marx, it seemed foolish not to love as many things as you could.”

“ ‘Zweisamkeit’ is the feeling of being alone even when you’re with other people.” Simon turned to look in his husband’s eyes. “Before I met you, I felt this constantly. I felt it with my family, my friends, and every boyfriend I ever had. I felt it so often that I thought this was the nature of living. To be alive was to accept that you were fundamentally alone.”
Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
