“Bring together things that have not yet been brought together and did not seem predisposed to be so.”

“Welcome, Anne. I thought you'd come today. You belong to the afternoon so it brought you. Things that belong together are sure to come together. What a lot of trouble that would save some people if they only knew it. But they don't...and so they waste beautiful energy moving heaven and earth to bring things together that don't belong.”

“How could two people seem so perfect together, be so happy together, an yet be so wrong in so many others' eyes?”

“I'm going to love you so good and so long you're gonna be convinced no earthly thing could have brought us together”

“So, Buckley, huh?" he asked, pulling away from me. "You think he deserves that much credit?""Well, he did bring us together and all," I said."Oh, is that what brought us together?" His brown crinkled together. "I thought it was that ten minutes of unprotected passion in a cheap Manhattan hotel room.""I'd give it six at most.”

“Things come apart so easily when they have been held together with lies.”
