Buying A Pair Of Shoes Is One

It's Always Fun To Walk Down The Street With Or Behind A Really Beautiful Woman, For No Reason Other Than To See How The World Reacts To Them.

Buying A Pair Of Shoes Is One Of The Most Optimistic Acts I Know, Next To Falling In Love. I Like Nothing Better Than To See An Old Man Wearing A Brand New Pair Of Brogues Or Cap-toed Oxfords, Preferably Jaunty Orange-brown, Unscuffed, Heels Unworn. We Want To Be Here Tomorrow, But Buying New Shoes, Like Falling In Love, Says I Plan On Being Here Tomorrow.

If You Are Very Lucky, You're Allowed To Be In Certain Places During Just The Right Season Of Your Life: By The Sea For The Summer When You're Seven Or Eight And Full Of The Absolute Need To Swim Until Dark And Exhaustion Close Their Hands Together, Cupping You In Between.

There Are People We Meet In Life Who Miss Being Important To Us By Inches, Days, Or Heartbeats. Another Place Or Time Or A Different Emotional Frame Of Mind And We Would Willingly Fall Into Their Arms; Gladly Take Up Their Challenge Or Invitation. But As It Is, We Encounter Them When We Are Discontent Or Content And They Are Not. Whatever They Are, We Are Not And Vice Versa. Two Trains Going In Different Directions That Pass For A Few Powerful Moments At Full Speed, Blasting Noise And Wind But Then They Are Gone. Whatever Serious Chemistry Might Have Been Possible If, Isn’t.

There's Almost Always A Point In A Book Where Something Happens That Triggers The Rest Of The Plot.
