“There was a time Jeff and Helen loved each other and touched each other's hands and ate breakfast in cafes together and secretly fucked in public, the way people in like do. Then came a time they made each other crazy and beat their hands on steering wheels and tore up love letters and photographs and said goodbye.”

“So this is life. Love. We spend all this time reaching for each other and mostly we end up hurting each other until it's over.”

“If wishes were held on the skin and swiped by raindrops, then emotions were freeloading off the cells that made up their space. The only offering these cells ever entertained was truth, painful and raw.”

“People hurt each other all the time just by being. What matters is that when you hurt someone, you do what you can to make it right.”
