Excerpts from the book Love of the Cholera Years
If they had realized in time that it is much easier to avoid the important catastrophes of married life than the small annoyances of daily life, life might have been easier for both of them, but all they had learned was that wisdom sometimes comes to man. It’s too late.

His fear was not the fear of death. No, the fear of death was in his heart for years and he lived with it. It was a shadow added to his own.

At the age of eighty-one, he still realized that he was connected to this world with only a few thin, rotten threads, threads that might be torn without any pain. Very simple, with a bitch tumbling while sleeping. He did his best not to tear those threads because he was afraid that he would not see God in front of his eyes in the darkness of death.
The man, in spite of several long and miserable loves, had only thought of him for one paragraph, and fifty-one years, nine months and four days had passed. He did not have to draw lines on the cell wall every day like a prisoner to remember time and not confuse.
Florentino Aretha wrote letters every night without mercy. One letter after another in the smoke of palm oil lamps in the post office of Kharazi shop, and the more he tried to make his letters more similar to the collection of poems of his favorite poets in the National Library, which at the same time reached eighty volumes. , The letters got longer and crazier. His mother, who had initially encouraged him in the torment of love, gradually became concerned about his health.

When he heard the first roosters in the bedroom, he shouted at her: “You are losing your mind, your brain is defective, there is no woman in the world who deserves so much love.”

Sentences from the love book of the cholera years
Humans are not born once, on the day their mothers give birth to them; “Rather, life forces them to re-create themselves over and over again.”

Florentino Ariza spoke in a calm tone; But he also tried to keep his word as firm as he could. He said:

As you wish. But I can not make a decision until I know what he thinks. Otherwise, I have betrayed him.

Lorenzo Daza leaned back in his chair and turned his gaze outward. He lowered his voice and said:

Do not force me to kill you with a bullet!

Florentino Ariza felt the turmoil of foam and ice fill his intestines. But his speech did not tremble; Because he felt he was being enlightened in the light of the Holy Spirit. He put his hand on his chest and said:

All right, shoot me, there is nothing more glorious than dying for love.
