“Questo è il mio pesciolino numero 641 in una vita costellata di pesciolini rossi.
I miei genitori mi comprarono il primo per insegnarmi cosa significasse amare e prendersi cura di una creatura vivente del Signore. Seicentoquaranta pesci dopo, l’unica cosa che ho imparato è che tutto quello che ami morirà.”
