“Watching those guys pummel each other so no one would suspect them of being weak was too much for me. Their reputations were more important than their faces.”

“You watch pro ball and those guys spend so much time with their hands on each other's rear ends, you'd think they were feeling for diamonds or something.”

“It didn't really matter that we couldn't understand each other, what mattered were those little smiles and nods that said so much more than words.”

“What's been important in my understanding of myself and others is the fact that each one of us is so much more than any one thing. A sick child is much more than his or her sickness. A person with a disability is much, much more than a handicap. A pediatrician is more than a medical doctor. You're MUCH more than your job description or your age or your income or your output.”

“Neither one of them could turn off their feelings, even with so much time and distance between them. The more they were apart, and the more they weren't allowed to be together, the more they loved each other.”

“I immediately suspected there was much more to it than was being said.”
