" 'I've forgotten how to talk to you. This is the longest talk we've had.'
'You did it better than anybody. Talk to me. Maybe that was the problem.'
'I guess I've unlearned it. Because I sit here thinking we have much to say.'
'We don't have so much to say. We used to say everything, all the time. We examined everything, all the questions, all the issues.'
'All right.'
'It practically killed us.'
'All right. But is it possible? Here's my question,' she said. 'Is it possible you and I are done with conflict? You know what I mean. The everyday friction. The every-word every-breath scheduled we were on before we split. Is it possible this is over? We don't need this anymore. We can live without it. Am I right?'
'We're ready to sink into our little lives,' he said." - Don DeLillo's 'Falling Man'
