“Soulmate" is an overused term, but a true soul connection is very rare, and very real.”

“Real love is a pilgrimage. It happens when there is no strategy, but it is very rare because most people are strategists”

“Love is a word that is overused these days, due to other lesser feelings often being mistaken for it. Infatuation, admiration, and attraction can pose as love, and can sometimes overwhelm us and fool us into thinking that we have found the real thing when we haven't. Those other feelings may be pleasant for a time, but they are not real love. Real love is rare. It's something that, quite honestly, I believe very few people ever truly experience.”

“Hard words are very rarely useful. Real firmness is good for every thing. Strut is good for nothing.”

“Soulmates. That was the word. Maggie could sense what it meant. Two people connected, bound to each other forever, soul to soul, in a way that even death couldn't break. Two souls that were destined for each other.”

“We live many lives, Jane, but very rarely do we ever come across the same soul twice.”
