“Everyone thinks you make mistakes when you're young. But I don't think we make any fewer when we're grown up.”

“If, even after you make what everyone considers to be the biggest mistake of your life, you stop thinking it's a mistake and may be see it as the best thing that ever could have happened.”

“I don't want to make the same mistake twice. I don't want to tell myself it's over when it's not.”

“It was one think to make a mistake, it was another thing to keep making it. I knew what happened when you let yourself get close to someone, when you started to believe they loved you: you'd be disappointed. Depend on someone, and you might as well admit you're going to be crushed, because when you really needed them, they wouldn't be there. Either that or you'd confide in them and you added to their problems. All you ever really had was yourself and that sort of sucked if you were less than reliable.”

“I think that when you live in a world with limits... when you've met everyone and seem everything you're going to see - you lose the hope that something extraordinary will happen in your life”

“I think there are crossroads in our lives when we make grand, sweeping decisions without even realizing it.”

“When you don't know where you're headed, you find places no one else would ever think to explore.”
