Lauren Fitte - Provider of Fun / Editor Helper

Perhaps if they had stayed together longer, Sabina and Franz would have begun to understand the words they used. Gradually, timorously, their vocabularies would have come together, like bashful lovers, and the music of one would have begun to intersect with the music of the other.

Kundera, The Incredible Lightness of Being, p. 124

ahhh Kundera, pretty much my favorite author ever.
I am inspired to leave one of my own favorite quotes from the "Unbearable lightness of being"



"...Guided by his sense of beauty, an individual transforms a fortuitous occurrence...into a motif, which then assumes a permanent place in the composition of the individual's life...Without realizing it, the individual composes his life according to the laws of beauty even in times of greatest distress"
