“Although I am a person who expected to be rooted in one spot forever, as it has turned out I love having the memories of living in many places.”
“As it happened, I didn't grow up to be the kind of woman who is the heroine in a Western, and although the men I have known have had many virtues and have taken me to live in many places I have come to love, they have never been John Wayne, and they have never taken me to the bend in the river where the cottonwoods grow. Deep in that part of my heart where artificial rain forever falls, that is still the line I want to hear.”
“When I fall in love, it will be for always. Nothing will change that. No one will walk out. We will stay together forever, and when death finally separates us we will have the memories that we shared. He will be that kind of person. I will know him instantly when I finally meet him. And he will love me forever.”
“I am like a falling star who has finally found her place next to another in a lovely constellation, where we will sparkle in the heavens forever.”
“Although personal calling I sense,Who am I? even if I am, I don't know.”
“I am not a bad person. I am a good person who has lived in a bad time."Alex's grandfather..Everything is Illuminated”
