“I think that maybe forgiveness is like change - it comes in small steps. (256)”

“I change too quickly: my today refutes my yesterday. When I ascend I often jump over steps, and no step forgives me that.”

“But I'm taking small steps'Cause I don't know where I'm goingI'm taking small steps And I don't know what to say.Small steps,Trying to pull myself togetherAnd maybe I'll discoverA clue along the way!”

“Then I think of the dark, and the lights, and the roaring, and Juliet, and before I can think of anything else, I fight the final few steps to the door and step out into the cold, where the rain is still coming down like shards of moonlight, or like steel.”

“I don't think I'm going to like it at all. I think it's going to hurt. But after the hurt I think maybe something good and strong and beautiful will come out of it.”

“Noticing small changes early helps you adapt to the bigger change that are to come”
