“Aw Gray, you remembered my birthday, I'm flattered.”
“Remember how we use to pray to get invited to birthday parties? And they only asked us because we were so grateful we'd do anything, stay late and help the mothers wash the cake pans. I'm still that girl, flattered to death if somebody wants me around.”
“In my mind my obituary is done.It is done and it is right. It tells the truth and as awful as it can be, the truth is what matters. It is what I should be remembered by, if I'm remembered at all. Remember the truth. that is all that matters”
“If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have remembered my last four birthdays.”
“The event happened on my birthday. I don’t remember the date, I only know it was my birthday because there was no cake or presents.”
“I must remember to forgive myself. Because there's an awful lot of gray to work with. No one can live in the light all the time."-A Great and Terrible Beauty”
