“The bottom line is that we never fall for the people we're supposed to.”

“A trial was a stupid word, consideringthat an attempt was never good enough: you were supposed to toe the line, period.”

“Where is the line? We're taught to stand up for ourselves; we're taught to stand up for others we care about. But all of a sudden, there's a new line drawn by the law. You sit back, it says, and let us deal with this.”

“The bottom line in both cases is that people don't change; that no matter how charming you are and how fiercely you love, you cannot turn a person into something she's not.”

“Sometimes we don't know we're dreaming; we can't even fathom that we're asleep.”

“the people you love can surprise you every day... maybe who we are isn't so much about what we do, but rather what we're capable of when we least expect it.”

“When we're awake, we see what we need to see. When we're asleep, we see what is really there.”
