Noah's letter:"My dear Allie, I couldn't sleep last night because I knew that between us it was over. The bitterness has passed, because I know that what is between us is authentic. And if one day, in some far away place in our lives we should meet again, I will hug you joyfully and I'll remember the summer we speant under the trees, learning one from the other and making our life grow. The most beautiful love is the one that wakes up the soul, and makes us wish to go higher; it's the one that sets our heart on fire and brings peace to our mind. This is what you gave me. And it's what I hoped to give you forever. I love you. Goodbye, Noah.""

Noah "Yes, this is how we are. We fight. You tell me how I'm an arrogant son of a bitch, and I tell you how you're a pain in the ass. And, you are for about 99% of the time. And I'm not afraid of offending you. Because all you need is a few seconds to go back being a pain in the ass" [...] "so, it won't be easy, actually really difficult, and we'll have to work at it every day. But I want to do it, because I want you. I want everything of you, always. Me and you, every day for the rest of our lives. Do you want to do something for me? Please. Try to imagine your life in 30 or 40 years time. What'll it be like? If you see it with him, go. Go! You left once already, I'll survive even a second if it's what you really want. But don't choose the easiest way." [...] "Stop thinking about what others want. Don't think of what I want, or what he wants, or what your parents want. What do you want? You, what do you want? You. What do you want? Tell me, what you want."

They didn't agree on many things, actually, they agreed on hardly anything. It was a constant fight, every day was an issue. But notwithstanding their being so different they had something important in common: they were bonkers about each other.

I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough.
