Anne Michaels Quotes

And She Knew For The First Time That Someone Can Wire Your Skin In A Single Evening, And That Love Arrives Not By Accumulating To A Moment, Like A Drop Of Water Focused On The Tip Of A Branch - It Is Not The Moment Of Bringing Your Whole Life To Another - But Rather, It Is Everything You Leave Behind. At That Moment.
Even That Night, The Night He Touched One Inch Of Her In The Dark, How Simply Avery Seemed To Accept The Facts - That They Were On The Edge Of Lifelong Happiness And, Therefore, Inescapable Sorrow. It Was As If, Long Ago, A Part Of Him Had Broken Off Inside, And Now Finally, He Recognised The Dangerous Fragment That Had Been Floating In His System, Causing Him Intermittent Pain Over The Years. As If He Could Now Say Of That Ache: Ah. It Was You.
