“I’ve found that people tend to trust other people who dress like them.”

“People are rarely as attractive in reality as they are in the eyes of the people who are in love with them. Which is, I suppose, as it should be.”

“If other people see you differently, you’ll end up seeing them differently, too.”

“I am jealous of anyone who can make other people care so much.”

“There is no word for our kind of friendship. Two people who don'tsee each other a lot, but can make each other effortlessly happy”

“Love and I once had a great relationship, but I fear we've broken up. It cheated on me, wrecked my heart, and then went on to date other people. A lot of other people. And I can't stand to watch it, since love's going to cheat on them too.”

“I am like the people in the Winslow Homer paintings, sharing the same room with them but not really there. I amlike the fish in the aquarium, thinking in a different language, adapting to a life that’s not my natural habitat. I am the people in the other cars, eachwith his or her own story, but passing too quickly to be noticed or understood.”
