“The story it told was unremarkable: a tale of love found and lost- the oldest story in the world. The only story.”
“Fairy tales represent hundreds of years of stories based on thousands of years of stories told by hundreds, thousands, perhaps even millions of tellers.”
“And the story of love is a long sad tale ending in graves.”
“History repeating itself is history's oldest story.”
“The destiny of the world is determined less by the battles that are lost and won than by the stories it loves and believes in.”
“Love is infinite. Grief can lead to love. Love can lead to grief. Grief is a love story told backward just as love is a grief story told backward.”
