“I’ve only imagined seeing you again. That you’d come to my home. That I’d run into you on the street. That I’d look up, and you’d be there, and you’d be well . . . and I’d tell you that I love you.”
“If I knew what you’d do, exactly when you knew what you’d do, then I’d either be you or I’d be God. And we both know I’m not you.”
“What you’d call stealing, I’d call a mistake. Or, if I were a politician, I’d call it an opportunity, and my privilege.”
“If a building were shaped like a body, I’d imagine you’d exit out the rear.”
“So what, you assumed you’d show up before the dance and I’d magically be ready to go? I need warning to get beautiful.”
“If you were to talk about your nose, I’d take everything you’d say at face value.”
