“Alone is how our story starts. But then I came along and changed all that.”

“The minute I heard my first love story,I started looking for you, not knowinghow blind that was.Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.They're in each other all along.”

“As long as I was alive, I was something. That was just how it was. But somewhere along the way it all changed. Living turned me into nothing.”

“Better not to start down a wrong path at all than head down it in the hope of making a detour when something better came along.”

“But the thing is that I’m in love with Rafael’s story. I think I understand when Adam says that all our stories are different but in some ways our stories are all the same. I never really got that. But when I start to read Rafael’s journal, it’s as if I can see myself. It’s better than a mirror.”

“How we remember changes how we have lived.Time runs both ways. We make stories of our lives.”
