Jay McInerney Quotes
Such Moments Are Too Often Lost, The Private Interludes Between The Tribal Gatherings, The Transit Between Destinations, When The City Becomes An Intimate Landscape, A Secret Shared By Two. This Was Once Their Neighborhood And She Wants To Reclaim It For A Little While, To Walk Past The Apartment Where They Spent So Much Of Their Lives, Even If It Makes Her Sad Thinking Of All That Transpired There, And All That's Lost. It Makes Her Melancholy To Imagine That She Might Never Be Here Again, That These Blocks, Their Former Haunts, And Their Old Building Will Outlast Them; That The City Is Supremely Indifferent To Their Transit Through Its Arteries, And To Their Ultimate Destination. For Now, She Wants Just To Be In Between. She Knows That Later It Won't Be The Party She Will Remember So Much As This, The Walk With Her Husband In The Crisp Autumn Air, Bathed In The Yellow Metropolitan Light Spilling From Thousands Of Windows, This Suspended Moment Of Anticipation Before Arrival.
