He had his time measures and he had her. That was his life. For as long as he could remember, it had been that way, Dor and Alli, even as children. I do not want to die, she whispered. You will not die. I want to be with you. You are.

More quotes by Mitch Albom
If you really could fit God in a file, you wouldn't need to believe in God, you know, you'd just go get the file like a box of corn flakes off the shelf.
Mitch Albom
Strangers are family you haven't recognize yet
Mitch Albom
Bad news has no limits. We often feel it should, like a rainstorm that can't possibly get any heavier. But a storm can always worsen, & the burdens of life can too.
Mitch Albom
Time, the Captain said, is not what you think. He sat down next to Eddie. Dying? Not the end of everything. We think it is. But what happens on earth is only the beginning.
Mitch Albom
With Marguerite, he wanted only time—more and more time—and he was granted it, nighttimes and daytimes and nighttimes again.
Mitch Albom
Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do. Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it. Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others. Don't assume that it's too late to get involved.
Mitch Albom
once we began to chime the hour, we lost the ability to be satisfied
Mitch Albom
The fact is, there is no foundation, no secure ground, upon which people may stand today if it isn’t the family. If you don’t have the support and love and caring and concern that you get from a family, you don’t have much at all. Love is so supremely important. As our great poet Auden said, ‘Love each other or perish’.
Mitch Albom
Never tell a child that something it's too hard
Mitch Albom
Remember me for these days, not the old ones.
Mitch Albom
Sticking with your family is what makes it a family.
Mitch Albom
You're not going to fix things by helping 65-year-olds or 75-year-olds for any long run.
Mitch Albom
Dor: there is a reason God lmits our days. Victor: why? Dor: to make each one precious.
Mitch Albom
Sometimes, love brings you together even as life keeps you apart.
Mitch Albom
I also believe that parents, if they love you, will hold you up safely, above their swirling waters, and sometimes that means you'll never know what they endured, and you may treat them unkindly, in a way you otherwise wouldn't.
Mitch Albom
Learn what you do not know. Understand the consequences of counting the moments.
Mitch Albom
I think, in general, the sports I've enjoyed covering the most have been the offbeat ones. The more popular, mainstream, the less I like them because they're more, they're more structured and the players don't have much interesting to say because they're interviewed all the time.
Mitch Albom
Don't let our outside labels or how fervent we look or zealous we are or how righteous we seem that's not how you measure yourself against other people. Everyone is a child of God if we really believed that, we'd treat each other better.
Mitch Albom
No story sits by itself, Sometimes stories meet at corners and sometimes they cover one another completely, like stones beneath a river.
Mitch Albom
I find interesting characters or lessons that resonate with people and sometimes I write about them in the sports pages, sometimes I write them in a column, sometimes in a novel, sometimes a play or sometimes in nonfiction. But at the core I always say to myself, 'Is there a story here? Is this something people want to read?'
