But Ludmilla is always at least one step ahead of you. “I like to know that book exists that I will still be able to read…” she says, sure that existent objects, concrete albeit unknown, must correspond to the strength of her desire.

Italo Calvino
Human life--that appeared to him the one thing worth investigating. Compared to it there was nothing else of any value.

I just don't want to end up in a relationship that isn't fair ever again. Taylor Swift
