"But something had happened, nothing hung together anymore, all things had spaces, had distances between them, like satellites, attracted to and pushed away at the same instant, and it would take immense willpower to cross these spaces, these distances, much more than I had available, much more than I had the courage to use."
Per Petterson (tr. Charlotte Barslund) - I Curse the River of Time
A wonderful description of loneliness, of distances between human beings, and their inability to connect on any plane.
