“And then there is our personal history. Memories only we share. Things not another living soul would understand.”
“We are our memories," Dodge said. "That's all we are. That's what makes us the person we are. The sum of all our memories from the day we were born. If you took a person and replaced his set of memories with another set, he'd be a different person. He'd think, act, and feel things differently.”
“It is only by risking our persons from one hour to another that we live at all.”
“So we came to understand that small and important thing, that our lives could be large with interesting strangers who would pass us without any personal involvement.”
“As we each began our journey, we learned the importance of connecting, of laughing with one another (not at one another), of sharing our lives.”
“If we would know true love and understanding one for another, we must realize that communication is more than a sharing of words. It is the wise sharing of emotions, feelings, and concerns. It is the sharing of oneself totally.”
