“Ever hear the one about that dog that spent its life chasing cars and finally caught one—and had no
idea what to do with it?
I’m that dog.”
― Gayle Forman, Where She Went

“I know what I did to you was so wrong, but at the time it also felt so necessary to my survival. I don't know if those two things can both be true but that's how it was. If it's any comfort, after a while, when it didn't feel necessary anymore, when it felt hugely wrong, all I was left with was the magnitude of my mistake, of my missing you.”
― Gayle Forman, Where She Went

“Your heart is the size of an ocean. Go find yourself in its hidden depths.”
― Rumi

“I read the letter once, put it aside, and read it again; I pick up a file but am really only reading your letter; I am with the typist, to whom I am supposed to dictate, and again your letter slowly slides through my fingers and I have begun to draw it out of my pocket when people ask me something and I know perfectly well I should not be thinking of your letter now, yet that thought is all that occurs to me—but after all that I am as hungry as before, as restless as before, and once again the door starts swinging merrily, as though the man with the letter were about to appear again. That is what you call the “little pleasure” your letters give me.”
― Franz Kafka, Letters to Felice
