“Hold tight, and I promise to do the same. We don't need a safety net Zena. We have each other.”

“We deserve each other, Luis … and I need you just as much as you need me. Hold me.”He steps closer, but hesitates. “If I do, mi chava, I can’t promise I’ll be able to let you go.”

“We need, in love, to practice only this: letting each other go. For holding on comes easily; we do not need to learn it.”

“Sisters function as safety nets in a chaotic world simply by being there for each other.”

“We didn't say good bye. But we knew it would be the end if we were apart. There was no reason to call or write letters. As it would have been meaningless, if we couldn't hold each other tight.”

“We have each other, and our stories twist and mingle like the twisting currents of a river. We hold each other tight as we spin and lurch across our lives. There are moments of great joy and magic. The most astounding things can lie waiting as each day dawns, as each page turns.”
