Parriys

“Of course, you never really forget anyone, but you certainly release them. You stop allowing their history to have any meaning for you today. You let them change their haircut, let them move, let them fall in love again. And when you see this person you have let go, you realize that there is no reason to be sad. The person you knew exists somewhere, but you are separated by too much time to reach them again.”

“People have obsessions and fears and passions which they don’t admit to. I think every character is interesting and has extremes. It’s the novelist privilege to see how odd everyone is.”

“You were a dream. Then a reality. Now a memory.”

“I have no other possessions of value but my soul.”

“I am strangely tired, not from having talked so much but at the mere thought of what I still have to say.”

“Go as far as you can see; when you get there, you’ll be able to see farther.”

“If you want to be proud of yourself, then do things in which you can take pride.”
