Ahead Of Time Quotes
It was the history of the family, written by Melquades, down to the most trivial details, one hundred yea rs ahead of time.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Am I in love? - Yes, since I'm waiting." The other never waits. Sometimes I want to play the part of the one who doesn't wait; I try to busy myself elsewhere, to arrive late; but I always lose at this game: whatever I do, I find myself there, with nothing to do, punctual, even ahead of time. The lover's fatal identity is precisely: I am the one who waits.
