“In the most complete friendship there is always a little empty space, like the space in an egg.”

“If one were to build the house of happiness, the largest space would be the waiting room.”

“Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties.”

“There are no friends; only moments of friendship.”

“There are places and moments in which one is so completely alone that one sees the world entire.”

“It is when we are faced with death that we turn most bookish.”

“if I were to begin my life again, I should want it as it was. I would only open my eyes a little more.”
