This book will now forever be associated with my worst travel experience so far.

Buck found it to be cheaper to mend his ways than to retaliate.

Buck was neither house-dog nor kennel-dog. The whole realm was his.

Two people were struggling within me; one who wants to go and one who is afraid to go.

So we'll be together Sunday after all, 5, 6 hours—too little for talking, enough to share the silence, hold hands, look into each other's eyes.

Today I dreamt about you.

Please don't be frightened if you feel my lips on the back of your neck, I didn't mean to kiss it, it's only love which can't be helped.

Your hand is in my own as long as you leave it there.

If I receive a word from you each day and see that this doesn’t cause you too much torment, then this word will probably be enough to make me halfway healthy.

And it turns out we really do keep writing the same thing. I ask whether you're sick and then you write about it, I want to die and then you do, I want stamps and then you want stamps, sometimes I want to cry on your shoulder like a little boy and then you want to cry on mine like a little girl. And sometimes and ten times and a thousand times and always I want to be with you and you are saying the same thing.

I'm tired, can't think of a thing, and my sole wish is to lay my head in your lap, feel your hand on my head and stay that way through all eternity.

And actually it’s not all you I love, but rather the existence you have bestowed on me.

Everything I am and have: all of which is blissfully happy to rest in you.

Explain that to my heart.

I know you much better than myself, by which I don’t meant to say I don’t know what state my hands are in.

I can see a stretch of road ahead, the road which is possible for me, and I know how far - probably unattainably far - I would have to be from my current position to deserve even a casual glance.
