“I had spent the day
friendless, lonely and sad,
a stranger to myself.
After drowning the day
on the sea shore,
I walked back
to my empty house
on the deserted street.
The moment
I opened the door,
the book on my table
flipped its pages
and said:
"Friend,
Where were you
for so long?”

“Memory's truth, because memory has its own special kind. It selects, eliminates, alters, exaggerates, minimizes, glorifies, and vilifies also; but in the end it creates its own reality, its heterogeneous but usually coherent version of events; and no sane human being ever trusts someone else's version more than his own.”

“It was only a smile, nothing more. It didn't make everything all right. It didn't make ANYTHING all right. Only a smile. A tiny thing. A leaf in the woods, shaking in the wake of a startled bird's flight. But I'll take it. With open arms. Because when spring comes, it melts the snow one flake at a time, and maybe I just witnessed the first flake melting. - Amir”
