“Monica's about sick, she's almost inconsolable”

“Publicly inconsolable about the fact that racism continues, these activists seem privately terrified that it has abated.”

“She was sick and when she was sick she was sick as Southern women are sick.”

“The truth is that I feel totally helpless, or totally inconsolable, to be more honest. I’m not trying to hide it, but it’s something you’re not to worry about.”

“Besides," Shane said "I want to see Monica's facewhen she catches sight of the two of you. Kodak moment.”

“You could have fooled me. Everytime I called you, Luke said you were sick. I figured you were avoiding me. Again.""I wasn't. I did want to talk to you. I've been thinking about you all the time.""I've been thinking about you, too.""I really was sick. I swear. I almost died back there on the ship, you know.""I know. Everytime you almost die, I almost die myself.”
