“I was nine minutes late for my last birthday party. And I was nine months on time for my first birthday.”
“The event happened on my birthday. I don’t remember the date, I only know it was my birthday because there was no cake or presents.”
“As a young woman, I schooled my romantic sensibilities on the most impossible examples. "Romeo and Juliet" is one of my favorites. I once plotted out the length of time it took them to conjoin. Four days. Four days for one of the world's greatest stories of love and marriage to play out. I do not see how that is an example for the rest of us. If every marriage on record lasted only four days, then there wouldn't be a word for infidelity. There wouldn't be a word for divorce. There wouldn't be time for anything but sex and adoration. Sounds like a charming recipe. I just have trouble practicing it in extension.”
“Aw Gray, you remembered my birthday, I'm flattered.”
“I could not remember my first kiss, but I could have told you Charlotte would be my last.”
