“Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows. It's what the sunflowers do.”

“Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you.”

“Always face the sunshine and you will never see the shadow.”

“Keep your face to the sun and you will never see the shadows.”

“Catherine's face was just like the landscape—shadows and sunshine flitting over it in rapid succession; but the shadows rested longer, and the sunshine was more transient.”

“This is the swamp as I see it, but what I can’t capture on canvas is you as I see you. No brush or paint will ever show the hero that you are. It will never be able to portray the sound of your voice when you whisper my name. The way my skin tingles when you touch me. The passion of you inside me. I love you, Talon. I know that I can’t keep you. No one can ever tame a wild beast. You have a job to do and so do I. I only hope that when you think of me, it’ll bring a smile to your face. Love always, Sunshine. (Sunshine's note)”
