“I see your face in every flower, your eyes in stars above, it’s just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love…”
― Mitch Albom, Tuesdays with Morrie

“You're afraid of the pain, you're afraid of the grief. You're afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails.”
― Mitch Albom, Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, a Young Man, and Life's Greatest Lesson

“For it is possible for a man to be faithful and lazy at the same time.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“He tells my parents how I took every class he taught. He tells them, “You have a special boy here.” Embarrassed, I look at my feet. Before we leave, I hand my professor a present, a tan briefcase with his initials on the front. I bought this the day before at a shopping mall. I didn’t want to forget him. Maybe I didn’t want him to forget me.

“Mitch, you are one of the good ones,” he says, admiring the briefcase. Then he hugs me. I feel his thin arms around my back. I am taller than he is, and when he holds me, I feel awkward, older, as if I were the parent and he were the child.

He asks if I will stay in touch, and without hesitation I say, “Of course.” When he steps back, I see that he is crying.”
