A collector, however, interprets this Latin saying differently.

I will never be old. I will never be sad. I’d scarf a cyanide capsule first. Life isn’t worth living unless you are young and surrounded by other young people in a beautiful cold garden perfumed by dirt and flowers and fallen leaves, gleaming in the string of lights, listening to the quiet city on the last fine night of the year.

I believe that because I had obtained a wife who was made up of wife-signs (beauty, charm, softness, perfume, cookery) I had found love…

I absolutely cannot be any longer without you — this half-existence, quarter-existence — is starting to get too much for me — and without the air which comes from you I can neither think nor write— I can’t do anything.

No, I didn’t manage to call you, my love… But then I received today— finally— your wonderful (stellar!) letter. You know, we are terribly alike… For example, in letters: we both like 1) to slip in foreign words unnoticed, 2) to quote from favourite books, 3) to translate impressions from one sense (for example, vision) to another (for example, taste), 4) to apologize at the end for imaginary nonsense; and much more.

Do not settle for people who do not appreciate you,who do not know how lucky they are.

Thank you for making an effort that stretches far beyond a simple bouquet of loud red roses. For making it your mission to make me smile; to fill my life with wonder.

We’re all lonely for something we don’t know we’re lonely for. How else to explain the curious feeling that goes around feeling like missing somebody we’ve never even met.

Your relationship failed because you can do better.

You’re the choice I make time and time again.
