“I had jumped off the edge, and then, at the very
last moment, something reached out and caught me in midair. That something is
what I define as love. It is the one thing that can stop a man from falling,
powerful enough to negate the laws of gravity.”—American novelist Paul Auster, Moon Palace (1989)
