Pg 217 Quotes

“An April breeze ran across the meadow, stirring the bushes and the trees in one long chilly sigh.”
― Neil Gaiman, Stardust

“In any case, everyone soon forgot that brief, illusory moment of shared existence. Certainly, for many years, no one worked at the job he'd planned on and trained for, everyone believing that they could and must do a thousand jobs all at once. And much time passed before everyone took back upon his shoulders his profession and accepted the burden, the exhaustion, and the loneliness of the daily grind, which is the only way we have of participating in each other's lives, each of us lost and trapped in our own parallel solitude.”
― Natalia Ginzburg, Lessico famigliare
