Kindle Notes & Highlights
the new telephone lines had overtaken the essence of writing and receiving letters.
People no longer liked to send handwritten letters and wait for days, or even weeks and months, to receive a reply.

‘Do you get tired of loving?’
It is a strange feeling, having someone talk about books you have chosen.
‘You don’t choose the novels, they choose you,’
It was magical to know how two people read the same book and see different things.
‘Life is not always beautiful. But if your words can make it beautiful for someone, then there is no harm in writing a few words.

Loving someone becomes more joyful when you know they too love you.
