“Because...because how can I expect the world to be a better place if I ain't gonna try real hard to make it better?”

“I listen....because I don't have any answers.”

“I'm not trying to save the world, much of it is not worth saving.”

“How can you say goodbye to someone who is a part of you?”

“I'll treasure every day that I have with you. For I've known what life was like before you and..and since you, and as far as I'm concerned, these are two different lives. And one makes me so very much happier that the other.”

“A Reason? People always say that. But only pepole who haven't really suffered talk about reasons. Because that's so much eaiser to say than to hear. What's the reason that our patients die? That they'll never walk again? That we've treated children whose limbs have been blown off? For that matter what's the reason for this hideous war?”

“Many fear death. But I do not. For I've tasted the oneness we call love. Death cannot steal it. Nor temper it. No, I'll take my love with me, wherever I travel. And it shall endure.”
