Yann Martel

"...What a terrible thing is to botch a farewell. I am a person who believes in form, in the harmony of order. Where we can, we must give things a meaningful shape..." "...It´s important in life to conclude things properly. Only then can you let go. Otherwise you are left with words you should have said but never did, and your heart is heavy with remorse. That bangled goodbye hurts me to this time..."
