Nothing Good Gets Away//Steinbeck 1958

I love reading Letters of Note, and I particularly like John Steinbeck's response to his son Thom. Read the full version here.

November 10, 1958

[...]There are several kinds of love. One is a selfish, mean, grasping, egotistical thing which uses love for self-importance. This is the ugly and crippling kind. The other is an outpouring of everything good in you—of kindness and consideration and respect—not only the social respect of manners but the greater respect which is recognition of another person as unique and valuable. The first kind can make you sick and small and weak but the second can release in you strength, and courage and goodness and even wisdom you didn’t know you had. [...]

But I don’t think you were asking me what you feel. You know better than anyone. [...]

And don’t worry about losing. If it is right, it happens—The main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away.

Shel Silverstein//Masks

One of my favorite poems from Shel Silverstein's Every Thing on It.

via Jonathan Safran Foer

“I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else.”
