“I don’t know if I’m the type who even likes people, much less falls in love with them.”
― André Aciman, Find Me

“It helps, knowing we’re still happy somewhere.”
― Amy Meyerson, The Bookshop of Yesterdays

“It’s just that the magic of someone new never lasts long enough. We only want those we can’t have. It’s those we lost or who never knew we existed who leave their mark. The others barely echo.”
― André Aciman, Find Me

“A meaningless detail. Fate works forward, backward, and crisscrosses sideways and couldn’t care less how we scan its purposes with our rickety little befores and afters.”
― André Aciman, Find Me
