I am not a person and I am not an animal. There is something I am here for something I must do before I can go.

Elsewhere, Gabrielle Zevin
You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person died for no reason.
A Moveable Feast, Ernest Hemingway

The Swan Thieves, Elizabeth Kostova
Sometimes the last person on earth you want to be with is the one person you can’t be without.
Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen
