A mind troubled by doubt cannot focus on the course of victory.
The corridor couldn't have smelled more strongly of fish guts if we had actually been inside a fish.
We can never flee the misery that is within us.
I could no more have stopped myself from feeling that sadness than you could stop yourself from smelling an apple that has been cut open on the table before you.
Here again, I saw life in all its noisy excitement passing me by.
I don't know when we'll see each other again or what the world will be like when we do. We may both have seen many horrible things. But I will think of you every time I need to be reminded that there is beauty and goodness in the world.
