“Having made the decision to love, had I chosen life instead of death?”

“Everything is exactly as it is for a reason.The crumb on your table isno mystical reminder of this morning's cookie,it is there because you have chosen not to remove it.No exceptions.”

“That’s why love stories don’t have endings! They don’t have endings because love doesn’t end.”

“You don't love hatred and evil, of course. You have to practice and see the real gull, the good in every one of them, and to help them see it in themselves. That's what I mean by love.”

“Listen to what you know instead of what you fear.”

“Oh, Fletch, you don't love that! You don't love hatred and evil,of course. You have to practice and see the real gull, the good in every one of them, and help them to see it in themselves. That's what I mean by love. It's fun, when you get the knack of it.”

“There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn; whatever steps we take, they're necessary to reach the places we've chosen to go.”
