On a trip to New York, riding the Staten Island Ferry for fun, because neither of them had ever done it, Susan turned to him suddenly and said, "Let's make sure it's always like this." And so entwined were their thoughts at that point that Ted knew exactly why she'd said it: not because they'd made love that morning or drunk a bottle of Pouilly-Fuissé at lunch -- because she'd felt the passage of time. And then Ted felt it, too, in the leaping brown water, the scudding boats and wind -- motion, chaos everywhere -- and he'd held Susan's hand and said, "Always. It will always be like this."
