>“I'm in love with you," he said quietly.
>"William," she said.
>"I am," he said. He was staring at her, and she could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”
For once, the memes were right. Is this not one of the greatest novels about love of all time? Thank you, /lit/, well done. *slow claps*

Black text ruined what little potential the post had. Commits the dual crime of being unfunny and unnecessary.
Verdict: kill yourself/10

Very good. Nearly got me.
I didn't enjoy Stoner much at all, but was sure it wasn't that excruciating.

I haven't read Stoner, but it iss on my list. When I read that quote, I almost removed it. Then I found out it's not from Stoner.

I was reading the OP and thinking, "I can't remember this bit, was that to Edith or Driscoll?"

>“I'm in love with you," he said quietly through his halocron transmitter as the Alegrians started to shoot his position as he was holding out.
>"William--" her voice crackled out to static the sound of rain on a porch at home.
>"I am." He was staring at his vibrocon assualt rifle, outdated technology. He knew he would never last as the Alegrians started towards him.

>"Sorry I thought I..."
>"Excuse me?"
>"Did you see that over there?"
>"See what?"
>"Never-mind. Anyway, where was I... I am." He was staring at her chest.
