Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

It’s one of my absolute favorites. I tried not to think about that while watching & reviewing, but it got to a point where I realized the only enjoyment I got from it came from filling in the movie plot with Foer’s details. 
(And…thanks!)

When I was a girl, my life was music that was always getting louder.
Everything moved me. A dog following a stranger. That made me feel so much. A calendar that showed the wrong month. I could have cried over it. I did. Where the smoke from a chimney ended. How an overturned bottle rested at the edge of a table.
I spent my life learning to feel less.
Every day I felt less.
Is that growing old? Or is it something worse?
You cannot protect yourself from sadness without protecting yourself from happiness.

They go everywhere with me.
