Mitch Albom Quote

Do you believe in reincarnation? I ask.Perhaps.What would you come back as?If I had my chance, a gazelle.A gazelle?Yes, so graceful. So fast.A gazelle?Morrie smiled at me. You think that's strange?I study his shrunken frame, the loose clothes, the socks wrapped feet that rest stiffly on rubber cushions, unable to move, like a prisoner in leg irons. I picture a gazelle racing across the desert. No, I say. I don't think that's strange at all.
