“You have the nicest window, you know? None of the others can even compete. It´s not flashy like the others, or bleary – your window gives of this nice, quiet light.”
“When did we see each other face-to-face? Not until you saw into my cracks and I saw into yours. Before that, we were just looking at ideas of each other, like looking at your window shade but never seeing inside. But once the vessel cracks, the light can get in. The light can get out.”
“[...] its small squares of fast-passing light, the early evening windows of the lives of hundreds of others.”
“There could not have been a lovelier sight; but there was none to see it except a little boy who was staring in at the window. He had ecstasies innumerable that other children can never know; but he was looking through the window at the one joy from which he must be for ever barred.”
“You have always the same view from your window! For different views, visit other houses! And for different ideas, visit other minds!”
“You never know the hurt others endure in this world behind the closed windows of their life, or the joy a simple act of kindness can bring.”
