Nicole Krauss Quotes

After That Day When I Saw The Elephant, I Let Myself See More And Believe More. It Was A Game I Played With Myself. When I Told Alma The Things I Saw She Would Laugh And Tell Me She Loved My Imagination. For Her I Changed Pebbles Into Diamonds, Shoes Into Mirrors, I Changed Glass Into Water, I Gave Her Wings And Pulled Birds From Her Ears And In Her Pockets She Found The Feathers, I Asked A Pear To Become A Pineapple, A Pineapple To Become A Lightbulb, A Lightbulb To Become The Moon, And The Moon To Become A Coin I Flipped For Her Love, Both Sides Were Heads: I Knew I Couldn't Lose.
