“I doubt you know anything about my work.” “I’ve read every word you’ve written.”
“I'm on vacation. Vacations always end. It's the very fact that it's finite that makes traveling special.

“That crush of happiness, that feeling that this is what life’s about: being somewhere beautiful, with someone you love.”

“Tomorrow we will love each other a little more, and the next day, and the next day. And even on those days when one or both of us is having a hard time, we’ll be here, where we are completely known, completely accepted, by the person whose every side we love wholeheartedly. I’m here with all the versions of him I’ve met over twelve years of vacations, and even if the point of life isn’t just being happy, right now, I am. Down to the bones.”
