I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library. Sometimes when I'm talking, my words can't keep up with my thoughts. I wonder why we think faster than we speak. Probably so we can think twice. Quotation is a serviceable substitute for wit. Whatever it is you're seeking won't come in the form you're expecting. Holding Eleanor's hand was like holding a butterfly. Or a heartbeat. Like holding something complete, and completely alive. I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love. I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. You might want to lie down, Magnus advised. I find that it helps when the crushing sense of horrible realization sets in. Sometimes you make choices in life and sometimes choices make you. Time was passing like a hand waving from a train I wanted to be on. I hope you never have to think about anything as much as I think about you.
