“The headiest loves were the loves that couldn't be.”

“Diana felt she was beginning to understand why, in all those novels she read, the headiest loves were the loves that couldn't be.”

“That was the way love was, she guessed-it left you always unsteady on your feet.”

“Love is all right, as things go, but lovers can be a terrible waste of a girl's time.”

“The first stab of love is like a sunset, a blaze of color -- oranges, pearly pinks, vibrant purples...”

“But I wanted to tell you before I left how completely abjectly sorry I am for all the pain I have caused you and that if I die you were the one true love of my life. By the time you read this I will be gone but please know I am still always at your side....' Yours forever Henry William Schoonmaker”

“He was just like summer, and she loved summer. If she had any wish, it would be to live a lifetime of summers.”
