Why I'm not where you are ...

The mistakes I've made are dead to me. But I can't take back the things I never did.

The Eskimos have four hundred words for snow, and the Jewshave four hundred for schmuck.

We believed in our grandmother’s cooking more fervently than we believed in God.

I hated myself for going, why couldn't I be the kind of person who stays?

It took me as long as I had known him to get rid of all of his words. Like turning an hourglass over.

I knew that our time together was almost over, I asked her if she liked sports, she asked me if I liked chess, I asked her if she liked fallen trees, she went home with her father, the center of me followed her, but I was left with the shell of me, I needed to see her again, I couldn't explain my need to myself, and that's why it was such a beautiful need, there's nothing wrong with not understanding yourself.
