“Our footsteps run, and I don't want them to end. I want to run and laugh and feel like this forever. I want to avoid any awkward moment when the realness of reality sticks its fork into our flesh, leaving us standing there, together. I want to stay here, in this moment, and never go to other places, where we don't know what to say or what to do.”
― Markus Zusak, I Am the Messenger

“My arms are killing me.
I didn't know words could be so heavy.”
― Markus Zusak, I Am the Messenger
