The time traveller's wife by Audrey Niffengger

"After an hour or so has passed I too am gone and there is only a blanket and a book, coffee cups, and clothing, to show that we were there at all." - Henry

"Running is many things to me: survival, calmness, euphoria, solitude. It is proof of my corporeal existence... things come and go around me, and the path moves like a filmstrip beneath my feet." - Henry

"On the screen a pretty galaxy is sucking her thumb... 'She smiles.' And so do we." -Henry

"The drawing is finished. It will serve as a record-I loved you, I made you, and I made this for you-long after I am gone, and Henry is gone, and even Alba is gone. It will say we made you, and here you are, here and now." - Clare

It's about being here and now.
