More than anything, I felt the unfairness of it, the inarguable injustice of loving someonewho might have loved you back but can't due to deadness, and then I leaned forward, my forehead against the back of Takumi's headrest, and Icried, whimpering, and I didn't even feel sadness so much as pain.

More than anything, I felt the unfairness of it, the inargua

Knowing one's 'individuality'. - We are too prone to forget

Knowing one's 'individuality'. - We are too prone to forget that in the eyes of people who are seeing us for the first time we are something quite different from what we consider ourselves to be: usually we are nothing more than a single individual trait which leaps to the eye and determines the whole impression that we make.

This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.
