Truer Words have Ne'er

Letter 4

"Misfortune of this kind comes to many. Life is well ordered, like a nécessaire, but not all of us can find our places in it. Life tailors us for a certain person and laughs when we are drawn to someone unable to love us. All this is simple--like postage stamps."

--Victor Shklofsky from Zoo or Letters not about Love
