Quote by Scott Turow

After a week, it's better. I miss her. I mourn her. But some peace has returned. She had been so unattainable - so young, so much a citizen of a different era - that it is hard to feel fully deprived.

Summary

In this quote, the speaker reflects on their feelings after a week since the departure of someone they miss. Although they still mourn and miss the person, they find some solace in the fact that the individual was seemingly unattainable. The person's young age and belonging to a different era make it challenging for the speaker to feel completely deprived of their presence. This realization brings them a sense of peace and acceptance, enabling them to cope with the loss more effectively.

If only you and I (or you or I) doesn't go and die before we have a chance to meet! And yet, if we did no doubt there would be some good and loving reason for it. I am (except in bad moods) more convinced of that all the time. We shall meet and be happy together if it is good for us: otherwise not (e.g. I might after all be disappointed in a hope I sometimes cherish that you would find me a little less aggressive and dictatorial and arrogant than I have often been in the old days. But who knows? The first argument might shatter all these good resolutions!)
