Abel Quotes

“Quella volta, Joshua mi rivelò un segreto che poi, come un seme, sarebbe germogliato in me, nel tempo di molti anni e molti dolorosi pensieri. Disse che dovevo stare molto attento perché sebbene la vita scorresse apparentemente come un fiume, dai monti al mare, nello stesso tempo correva però anche in senso contrario, risalendo verso le sorgenti. Così, ragionare di prima e dopo è illusorio, o quanto meno riduttivo, perché, seppure in modo nascosto, il dopo sempre precede il prima mentre mansueto lo segue. È un unico movimento, disse.”

“With a wicked smirk, he turned his attention back to the desolate road. “I’ve always wanted to do this. Who better to have my first time out on the open road with than the only girl I’ve ever been in love with.” Staring straight ahead, he dared not look her way. It hadn’t exactly slipped, and telling her he was in love with her wasn’t on a whim. The whole time that he’d been tormented this past week, he’d considered showing up at her house and just spilling it. If there was ever anything he’d been certain of, it was this. He finally glanced at Nellie, her silence scaring the hell out of him. She was staring at him with her hand over her mouth. Her eyes completely welled again and her brows pinched. “It’s true,” he smiled, “not just in love, Nell, but hopeless, there’s-no-helping-this-guy kind of in love with you.”
