Emily St. John Mandel Quotes
You Know Where I'm From," He Said, And She Understood What He Meant By This. Once We Lived On An Island In The Ocean. Once We Took The Ferry To Go To High School, And At Night The Sky Was Brilliant In The Absence Of All These City Lights. Once We Paddled Canoes To The Lighthouse To Look At Petroglyphs And Fished For Salmon And Walked Through Deep Forests, But All Of This Was Completely Unremarkable Because Everyone Else We Knew Did These Things Too, And Here In These Lives We've Built For Ourselves, Here In These Hard And Glittering Cities, None Of This Would Seem Real If It Wasn't For You.
