“Recovery is something that you have to work on every single day and it's something that it doesn't get a day off.”

“It's hard work being a person, you have to do it every single day.”

“Think of every single thing that we 'have to' do to get through a day as something that we 'get to' do... before our turn is over. Everything is a gift.”

“Shouldn't you have today off? Isn't it Sunday?""I've a half day off ever' three days. I'll be out temorra afte'noon."I snort. "A half day?"God, that's ridiculous. She doesn't even get a single full day off? What is Alex, some kind of slave driver? Jeez.”

“You start out every day with something new and different, and sometimes it looks pretty good and sometimes it doesn't, but you have to go through it anyway.”

“Cat, I'll let you in on a little secret. We don't all love our jobs every day. And doing something you have passion for doesn't make the work part of it any easier...It just makes you less likely to quit.”
