“Most things in my life are anything but simple--but loving you is. I just do.”

“Saying that you love is easy, but living up to those simple words is the most difficult thing you'll ever do.”

“We had good long talks about my writing in the days that followed. "Write of things you know, Julie; familiar, simple things that you have experienced; things that have touched you deeply.""But nothing's ever happened to me. I've just lived here with Aunt Cordelia and you most of my life, I've gone to school, visited Father--oh, sure, I'm in love with Danny, but that's something we've grown into--very wonderful for us, but not very exciting for the rest of the world. How can a person who has lived as quiet a life as I have find anything to write about?""Then you do have a problem. If you haven't lived long enough to have felt anything deeply, than you are in the same position I--as many would-be writers are. You've nothing to say. So take up crocheting.”

“I love you, that is a simple thing to say...but my spirit does not love yours, it is entwined with it.”

“Who do you love?It's a question anyone should be able to answer. A question that defines a life, creates a future, guides most minutes of one's days. Simple, elegant encompassing.Who do you love?”

“I would do anything to save our love because our love is my life”
