You become a reader by reading the literature, not by reading the handbooks about it.

All the time I think I can never love you more than I already do. And then you do something or say something, and I love you more than ever. Like just now. Like now. How is it possible? Can you love someone more and more and at the same time, all the time, love them as much as it's possible to love someone?

I don't actually think “true love” is such a good term because love can only be true. If it isn't true it can't be love.

Is it better to go with the flow or let the flow go?

If a boy, if a man, asks you if you're all right and you say yes, he'll always believe you and get on with what he wants to do. It's just the way they're made.

You get to be wiser by storying the world and seeing it through other forms of consciousness than your own.

Doing anything when you're bored is very very boring. Anyway, doing nothing is the point of being bored. The pleasure of being bored ismooning about and doing nothing.
