“Rise. «I grandi quadri – la gente accorre per vederli, attirano folle, sono riprodotti all’infinito sulle tazze e sui tappetini dei mouse e su qualunque cosa. E, questo riguarda anche me, puoi passare una vita intera a visitare musei con grande piacere, un bel giretto, e poi via, a pranzo da qualche parte. Ma…» tornò a sedersi sul tavolo, «se un quadro ti affonda davvero nel cuore e cambia il tuo modo di vedere, e di pensare, e di provare emozioni, non pensi, “oh, amo questo quadro perché è universale”, “amo questo quadro perché parla a tutto il genere umano”. Non è questa la ragione per cui ci si innamora di un’opera d’arte. È un sospiro segreto in un vicolo. Pss, tu. Ehi ragazzino. Sì, proprio tu.»”

Not here.
You are not here.”

“Ashley,
I caught a bear today in the new trap. We’re taking it a hundred miles north. That’s a hundred miles closer to where you are. I’ve decided units and measurements of distance are bullshit. With you there are only two distances that matter:
Here.
Not here.
You are not here.
