“Once there was a tree, and she loved a little boy.”

“And the boy loved the tree.......very much. And the tree was happy.”

“once,a boy told a girl : i will stay with you forever, little did she know that his forever is only three months because..he died of cancer!”

“She had the swagger of a girl. She blushed like a boy. She had a girl’s toughness. She has a boy’s gentleness. She was as meaty as a girl. She was as graceful as a boy. She was as brave and handsome and rough as a girl. She was as pretty and delicate and dainty as a boy. She turned boys' heads like a girl. She turned girls' heads like a boy. She made love like a boy. She made love like a girl. She was so boyish it was girlish, so girlish it was boyish, she made me want to rove the world writing our names on every tree. I had simply never found someone so right. Sometimes this shocked me so much that I was unable to speak.”

“Lochie. The boy I once loved. The boy I still love. The boy I will continue to love, even when my part in this world is over too.”

“There is a little boy inside the man who is my brother... Oh, how I hated that little boy. And how I love him too.”
