They can never resist smelling the pages, especially when they are yellow. - Date a Girl Who Reads, Rosemaire Urquico

So, now I shall talk every night. To myself. To the moon… I talk to myself and look at the dark trees, blessedly neutral.

I am a dreamer. I know so little of real life that I just can’t help reliving such moments as these in my dreams, for such moments are something I have very rarely experienced. I am going to dream about you the whole night, the whole week, the whole year. I feel I know you so well that I couldn’t have known you better if we’d been friends for twenty years. You won’t fail me, will you? Only two minutes, and you’ve made me happy forever. Yes, happy. Who knows, perhaps you’ve reconciled me with myself, resolved all my doubts.- Fyodor Dostoevsky, White Nights

Your leg, my leg, your arm, my arm, your smile and the warmth of you who made me laugh again.  - Charles Bukowski
