“Watchin you go to sleep
Finest Full Moon
Yet even though a blink glimpse;
Comparing to the eternity,
Which I set up
In it with you
Endless Joy
Spending the eternity
With you and only you
A beautiful eternity
With you always my side
Until our below 100 eternities
Are ended”

“Una visione politica realmente globale richiede allora di abbracciare quello che definiamo un cosmopolitismo quotidiano, una cura promiscua su scala globale che porti la nostra visione della cura al di là delle strutture di parentela, delle comunità e degli stati fino alle zone più remote ed “estranee” del pianeta. I soggetti cosmopoliti, letteralmente i “cittadini del mondo”, sono quelli che hanno a cuore il mondo.”

“There are, at least, three people you’ll need to make sure are aware that you want to stay in touch with them. I don’t know who these people are because I don’t know who you are or what you do, but I know that if you don’t carefully handle this transition, you’re going to lose them. If you’re looking for a way to identify these people, stare at your lunch crowd. Pick the ones whose meetings you care about. If you’ve got a folder in your inbox just for this person, you’re going to want to make sure they know you care.”

“To love yourself requires loving others.”
“I had a theory—even though I'd never told anyone, not even Kat—that love was about paying attention. It's the one thing you can't buy or fake or make up for at the last minute. So the things that meant the most to me were the little details that told you someone had been paying attention, memorizing your random preferences, letting you know they cared.”
