Sad Quotes

“On the Thursday before her [tenth] birthday, Abby brought the classroom twenty-five E.T. cupcakes as a reminder. Everyone ate them, which she thought was a good sign. On Saturday, she forced her parents to drive to Redwing Rollerway an hour early so they could set up. By 3:15 the private party room looked like E.T. had exploded all over the walls. There were E.T. balloons, E.T. tablecloths, E.T. party hats, snack-sized Reese's Pieces next to every E.T. paper plate, a peanut butter and chocolate ice cream cake with E.T.'s face on to, and on the wall behind her seat was Abby's most treasured possession that could not under any circumstances get soiled, stained, ripped, or torn: an actual E.T. movie poster her dad had brought home from the theater and given to her as a birthday present. Finally, 3:30 rolled around. No one came.”

“After a while, the human caretakers called the chimpanzees to the feeding building and most of them left the place where the body lay, with the exception of two females, mother and daughter, who remained next to the corpse. The mother, who had had an especially close relationship with the deceased, carefully examined his face and then grabbed a grass stem and began to clean his teeth. She spent several minutes engaged in this task, all the while remaining under her daughter’s attentive gaze.”

“I gave you water every day, Sunshine songs, a cozy clay. You stretched your leaves so wide and fair— I thought you knew how much I cared. But puddles grew where roots should breathe, Your stem turned soft, a silent plea. One leaf dropped, then two, then three— My love drowned you, and now I see. You were my friend in that bright room, A green hello that fought the gloom. I didn’t mean to steal your light, Just wanted to hold your petals tight. Now your pot sits empty, small, Dirt stained with tears I let fall. Sometimes love pours like a storm— Too much warmth can break what’s warm.”

“He walked into the spotlight. The crowd cheered. He waited. And then, with no warning, he let out a single, clear laugh. It came out of him like a floodgate bursting. High-pitched, joyous, real. He laughed until his face crumpled, until his knees gave way, until he collapsed to the floor. They thought it was the act. They laughed harder. Some stood. Some applauded. A child shouted, “Do it again!” But Bobo lay still. His rubber nose squeaked against the stage floor. His heart didn’t. The laughter swelled like an ocean, unknowing, unrelenting. The curtain dropped. Behind it, a small notebook fell from his jacket. It opened to a single scribbled line: “The joke was me.”

“Dreamt of you again last night. We were spooning, your arms tight around me. I could feel your breath on my neck, your hand on my hip. Your thoughts in my head. Your soul in my body. Love ripping through me all night like a storm. Desperate heartache ever since. Been telling everyone at the restaurant I have allergies to explain the tears. ... Miss you like the earth misses rain.”

“«Forse non mi interessa proprio, la lista di cose da fare prima di morire. Credo che quello che voglio sia vivere come al solito - sai, no, lavorare e andare a passeggio e guardare "Come Dine with Me" -, ma in una versione leggermente più carina. La vita normale, ma meglio. Chiamiamolo "normale plus".» «"Normale plus"» ripete Nick. «Mi piace. Puntiamo al normale plus in tutto quello che facciamo. perciò, quando andiamo al cinema, prendiamo dei biglietti leggermente migliori.» «Esatto. E mangiamo cose più buone di quelle che mangeremmo normalmente.»”
