I've come to the conclusion that you're a person apart from most other people, a special person. I sensed that when I read your manuscript, but now that I've met you face to face, I'm convinced of it. You're your own man, and because of that you're a thrilling person to be with, but also because of that you're never going to fit in anywhere, which is a good thing, I believe, since you'll be able to go on being your own man, and a man who is his own man is a better man than most men, even if he doesn't fit in. Paul Auster "4321"
