“Be the best Guardian you can be. Save lots of people. And every time you save someone, think of me.” -Maddy”

“You're not saving lives, Dad. You can't save lives when no one's living anymore. (Maddie)”

“...She said we can't save everyone, but we can damned sure as hell fight to save those we love. ... She taught me that we can only do our best. You've done your best. ...not beat yourself up because you missed something or someone. It makes you weak.”

“... no one can ever save someone else, you know? We can only save ourselves. You know that, don't you?”

“Don't let the worst people get the best of you. Save it for the best people instead".”

“You see, they think they're saving you, and you think you're saving them. That's where the trouble starts. Someone says, 'I saved you, now here's what I want.' And its the same with big countries and little ones, religious leaders and their followers, even husbands and wives. When things really work, though, it's because people realize that this is a lie, that, really, we all save one another. It's the way of the world. Things work out for the best when everyone makes it, together, when we manage to save each other. (from The Way of the World)”
