Jonathan Safran Foer
“He awoke each morning with the desire to do right, to be a good and
meaningful person, to be, as simple as it sounded and as impossible as
it actually was, happy. And during the course of each day his heart
would descend from his chest into his stomach. By early afternoon he was
overcome by the feeling that nothing was right, or nothing was right
for him, and by the desire to be alone. By evening he was fulfilled:
alone in the magnitude of his grief, alone in his aimless guilt, alone
even in his loneliness. I am not sad, he would repeat to himself over
and over, I am not sad. As if he might one day convince himself. Or fool
himself. Or convince others--the only thing worse than being sad is for
others to know that you are sad. I am not sad. I am not sad. Because
his life had unlimited potential for happiness, insofar as it was an
empty white room. He would fall asleep with his heart at the foot of his
bed, like some domesticated animal that was no part of him at all. And
each morning he would wake with it again in the cupboard of his rib
cage, having become a little heavier, a little weaker, but still
pumping. And by the midafternoon he was again overcome with the desire
to be somewhere else, someone else, someone else somewhere else. I am
not sad.”

“When God Created Mothers"
When the Good Lord was creating mothers, He was into His sixth day of
"overtime" when the angel appeared and said. "You're doing a lot of
fiddling around on this one."
And God said, "Have you read the specs on this order?" She has to be
completely washable, but not plastic. Have 180 moveable parts...all
replaceable. Run on black coffee and leftovers. Have a lap that
disappears when she stands up. A kiss that can cure anything from a
broken leg to a disappointed love affair. And six pairs of hands."
The angel shook her head slowly and said. "Six pairs of hands.... no way."
It's not the hands that are causing me problems," God remarked, "it's the three pairs of eyes that mothers have to have."
That's on the standard model?" asked the angel. God nodded.
One pair that sees through closed doors when she asks, 'What are you
kids doing in there?' when she already knows. Another here in the back
of her head that sees what she shouldn't but what she has to know, and
of course the ones here in front that can look at a child when he goofs
up and say. 'I understand and I love you' without so much as uttering a
word."
God," said the angel touching his sleeve gently, "Get some rest tomorrow...."
I can't," said God, "I'm so close to creating something so close to
myself. Already I have one who heals herself when she is sick...can feed
a family of six on one pound of hamburger...and can get a nine year old
to stand under a shower."
The angel circled the model of a mother very slowly. "It's too soft," she sighed.
But tough!" said God excitedly. "You can imagine what this mother can do or endure."
Can it think?"
Not only can it think, but it can reason and compromise," said the Creator.
Finally, the angel bent over and ran her finger across the cheek.
There's a leak," she pronounced. "I told You that You were trying to put too much into this model."
