Franz Kafka, from a letter to Milena Jesenka featured in "Letters to Milena,

Everytime I see you, my heart skips a beat.

Everytime I see you, all those feelings come rushing back.

I thought I'll be over you, but I'm not.

I thought that writing about you might help me forget you-

I thought wrong.

If I lose you too in the same way I lost her, it just proves how pitiful and useless I have been. No more 3rd time. It hit like a bus the first time; it'll hit like a train this time.

Martha Gellhorn, from a letter featured in The Selected Letters of Marth Gellhorn
