Jonathan Safran Foer
Only humans can cry tears.
Jonathan Safran Foer
If we communicated with something like music, we would never be misunderstood, because there is nothing in music to understand...... But until we find this new way of speaking, until we can find a nonapproximate vocabulary, nonsense words are the best thing we've got. Ifactifice is one such word.
Jonathan Safran Foer
I could not believe in a God that would challenge faith like this.
Jonathan Safran Foer
....Worthy would-be worlds of words, whorls of working wonder.
Jonathan Safran Foer
Be the instrument playing the sound of your life's passing
Jonathan Safran Foer
Our love was the affliction for which only our love was the cure.
Jonathan Safran Foer

Jonathan Safran Foer
