“Believe in the wonderment of life, the magic of love, and the reality of death.”

“The first and foremost reality is that suffering and death are not only enemies of life, but a means of reminding us of life's twin realities, love and hate.”

“A book had always been a door to another world... a world much more interesting and fantastical than reality. But she had finally discovered that life could be even more wonderful than fantasy.And that love could fill the real world with magic.”

“The world is simple, I think, in its essence. Life, death, love, hate. Desire, fulfillment. Magic.”

“...believing in the magic of life, the power of hope, the cosmic sanity of chance and change, and the unmistakable power of love.”

“Love and death are very similar. They're the times in your life when you most want to believe in magic, when you yearn for some symbolic act or retrospective edit that can change the world you find yourself in.”
