Julian Barnes
“This is what those who haven’t crossed the tropic of grief often fail to understand: the fact that someone is dead may mean that they are not alive, but doesn’t mean that they do not exist.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

Julian Barnes
“And so, perhaps, with grief. We imagine we have battled against it, been purposeful, overcome sorrow, scrubbed the rust from our soul, when all that has happened is that grief has moved elsewhere, shifted its interest. We did not make the clouds come in the first place, and have no power to disperse them. All that has happened is that from somewhere -- or nowhere -- an unexpected breeze has sprung up, and we are in movement again.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

Julian Barnes
“It is all just the universe doing its stuff, and we are the stuff it is being done to.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

Julian Barnes
“Every love story is a potential grief story.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

Julian Barnes
“And everything you do, or might achieve thereafter, is thinner, weaker, matters less. There is no echo coming back; no texture, no resonance, no depth of field.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life
