Anne Fortier
I wish I had the power to flip my reality upside down like an hourglass, and that life wasn't a finite affair, but rather a perpetually recurring passage through a hole in time.
Anne Fortier
Don't underestimate the power of events that happened a long time ago. That is the tragic flaw of modern man.
Anne Fortier
Only weak men want women to be weak.
Anne Fortier
And whether or not we had now paid our dues, he was my blessing, and I was his.
Anne Fortier
For as long as I could remember, he had never worn a single piece of clothing that could be considered casual. Khaki shorts and golf shirts, to Umberto, were the garments of men who have no virtues left, not even shame.
