P.S. from Paris

by Marc Levy

A broken heart hurts like hell, I know, but it’s better than being so empty you’ve got nothing to cry about.”

Paris reminded him of sad times, years of great solitude.

“The important thing is to make a decision,” he said. “Make what decision?” “One that will enable you to live in the present instead of constantly wondering what the future will be like.”

“Why do girls always fall madly in love with men who only make them suffer, while they barely bat an eye at the ones who would move mountains for them?”

If only heartache were contagious, you would love me as much as I love you.

“Then wait till you’re a mother yourself. You’ll view your childhood very differently, and your mother through completely new eyes.”

I will never be able to thank you properly for being such a good friend, for always being there when I need you, for standing up to me, even at the risk I’d be angry with you, and for never lying to me.
