“STANFORD LOCKWOOD WORLD'S BEST FATHER”

“Trust is a careless pursuit at best. At worst, it's a good way to get yourself killed.”

“Was their love worth the erasure of the world and all its stories?”

“After such an emotional day with her own parents, the thought nearly brought Luce to her knees with sadness. Daniel was alone in the world.”

“The best part was now. That was what she would take with her from her journeys through the ages: He was worth everything to her and she was worth everything to him. The only way to experience that deep level of their love was to enter each new moment together, as if time were made of clouds. And if it came down to it these next nine days, Luce knew that she and Daniel would risk everything for their love.”

“She knew she shouldn't want him with every fiber of her being, but she couldn't help herself. Gazing at him feeling his touch - the rest of the world faded into the background”

“In this lifetime you're nothing more than you appear to be: a stupid, selfish, ignorant, spoiled little girl who thinks the world lives or dies on whether she gets to go out with some good-looking boy at school...I'd still relish this moment...killing you.”
