“When people hear good music, it makes them homesick for something they've never had, and never will have”

“Dating is like trying to make a meal out of leftovers. Some leftovers actually get better when they've had a little time to mature. But others should be thrown out right away, No matter how you try to warm them up, they're never as good as when they were new.”

“He felt homesick for places he had never been. He missed hearts he had never loved.”

“We are homesick most for the places we have never known.”

“Reading words puts them in your mind. You never forget. Even when you don't get a chance to dwell on the music, you can hear it in your head.”

“Wherever I go the music playing is always something I like. I never hear music I hate.""If you never hear it, how do you know what music you don't like?" I asked, not sure if I'd made any sense. It was spinny trying to figure it out. Didn't you know what you liked in contrast to what you didn't? But if he only heard music he liked, he'd never have any contrast. Did that mean he liked everything?”
