“There are no coincidences in life. What person that wandered in and out of your life was there for some purpose, even if they caused you harm.

“...until that moment I had not understood that this was a story about lonely people, about absence and loss, and that that was why I had taken refuge in it until it became confused with my own life, like someone who has escaped into the pages of a novel because those whom he needs to love seem nothing more than ghosts inhabiting the mind of a stranger.”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind

“Strangers are endearing because you don’t know them yet.”
― Dejan Stojanovic, The Sun Watches the Sun
