Michael Cunningham Quotes

We'd Hoped Vaguely To Fall In Love But Hadn't Worried Much About It, Because We'd Thought We Had All The Time In The World. Love Had Seemed So Final And So Dull
Love Was What Ruined Our Parents. Love Had Delivered Them To A Life Of Mortgage Payments And Household Repairs; To Unglamorous Jobs And The Flourescent Aisles Of A Supermarket At Two In The Afternoon. We'd Hoped For Love Of A Different Kind, Love That Knew And Forgave Our Human Frailty But Did Not Miniaturize Our Grander Ideas Of Ourselves. It Sounded Possible. If We Didn't Rush Or Grab, If We Didn't Panic, A Love Both Challenging And Nurturing Might Appear. If The Person Was Imaginable, Then The Person Could Exist.
