Life Of Pi - Yann Martel..11/24/06

page 285: What a terrible thing it it 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....Its important in life to conlude 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..

Page 297:Dont you bully me with your politeness!Love is hard to believe, ask any lover. Life is hard to believe, ask any scientist. God is hard to believe, ask any believer. What is your problem with hard to believe?

Page 302:
The world isnt just the way it is. it is how we understand it, no? And in understanding something, we bring something to it, no? Doesn't that make life a story?
