Quotes

• “My family isn’t posh; they’re musicians.”
• “Running is many things to me: survival, calmness, euphoria, solitude. It is proof of my corporeal existence, my ability to control my movement through space if not time, and the obedience, however temporary, of my body to my will.”
• ““But don’t you think,” I persist, “that it’s better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?””
• “That’s what I love you for: your inability to perceive all my hideous flaws.”
• “Clare takes a mouthful, swallows it in a businesslike fashion, and says, “Well, that’s not so bad.”“That’s a twenty-something-dollar bottle of wine.”“Oh. Well, that was marvelous.””
• “But as usual there’s no answer to this. As usual, that’s just how it is.”
