caring together bricks
I suddenly understood that even love and caring weren't always enough. They were the concrete bricks of our relationship, but unstable without the mortar of time spent together, time without the threat of imminent separation hanging over us.
care made turns
Nothing about this entire scenario made sense. But who cares? Once in a while, everyone was entitled to be a bit flaky, and now it was his turn.
sleep car purpose
Life passes by now like the scenery outside a car window. I breathe and eat and sleep as I always did, but there seems to be no great purpose in my life that requires active participation on my part...I do not know where I am going or when I will get there.
car ifs happens
What happens if a car comes? We die.
summer firsts carefree
Or maybe watching you enjoy a carefree summer while you fell in love was what kept me out of the hospital in the first place.
beautiful care ignored
How had I become middle-aged while the ravages of time ignored her? I didn't know and didn't care, and before I could stop them, the words were already out. "You're beautiful," I murmured.
book fighting car
Some things definitely work better on film than in books. Introspection is great in books but it doesn't work on film. Anything with high intensity, whether it's a love scene, a car chase, a fight scene - those things work so well on film and oftentimes they can tell a much broader part of the story.
moving love-you care
It'll be hard, but life moves fast-we'll see each other again. I know that. I can feel that. Just like I can feel how much you care for me and how much I love you
simple air car
As the warm air blew in the car, simple snapshots of the life they'd lived together surfaced in his mind; but as always, those images led inexorably to their final day together.
people care mets
The saddest people I've met in my life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all .
collapse ending good knew knowing novels poignant previous rest since time waste
I knew I wanted the ending of the story to be poignant and heart-felt, and secondly, because I didn't know if I would be able to do that, since my previous novels hadn't been good enough to publish. If I couldn't do it, I didn't want to waste my time writing the rest of the novel, knowing it would collapse at the end.
adapted best familiar knowing people
The best part of having a movie adapted is knowing that more people will become familiar with my work.
beauty cannot collection dreaming finding flowers learned life lived obvious poetry refreshing simply spent talking
I learned what is obvious to a child. That life is simply a collection of little lives, each lived one day at a time. That each day should be spent finding beauty in flowers and poetry and talking to animals. That a day spent with dreaming and sunsets and refreshing breezes cannot be bettered.
based decision historical preference
I have no preference on writing in contemporary or historical periods-that decision is based on the story.
