“how could i long so for someone whose existence i'd only just become aware of? but wasn't it always like this? some things we never know we need until we find them. and now, when i looked back on my life, it seemed empty and idle, if only because she'd not been in it.”

“i imagined her lying in her bed, her hair spread out across her pillow, her breathing slow and deep, and it seemed to me that there could be no greater vision of happiness.”

“seeing the warm glow in her eyes, i thought my heart might stop. heaven was only centimetres away.”

“i had so much to say to her, enough to fill whole years or an eternity… but at that moment, i couldn't think of a single word.”

“how was it that a person could bring such happiness to another without really doing anything at all?”
