“Talking one way or another doesn't make you better”

“This is the painful part. Love doesn't leave you. Not all at once. It creeps back in, making you think it can be another way, that it can still be another way, and you have to remind yourself of the reasons that it probably won't be.”

“We are all on this journey of life together, each given certain gifts to make this world a better place and to help make one another's burdens a little lighter along the way.”

“Talk nonsense, but talk your own nonsense, and I'll kiss you for it. To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.”

“It doesn't matter to me. We're still cousins in our own way. Blood's just something old people talk about to make you feel bad.”

“One age ends, and another begins. It is the way of things. But, it doesn't happen all at once.”
