“Just because you don’t know how on Earth something might be achieved doesn’t mean you shouldn’t allow yourself to really, really want it. That’s the essence of a dream, the realms of magic and of miracles.”

“You think that it’s not magic that keeps you alive? Just ‘cause you understand the mechanics of how something works, doesn’t make it any less of a miracle. Which is just another word for magic. We’re all kept alive by magic, Sookie. My magic’s just a little different from yours, that’s all.”

“You lose anyone, there’s no replacing them. What you need to get is that’s precious, you get to keep that, you don’t want to replace it. That doesn’t mean you can’t find something else just as good.”

“The fact that you already have it all within you doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go to school, learn your craft, read books, or go to workshops. Just remember that all you’re really doing is using other people and things to remind you of what you already know. And you don’t have to wait until you know “enough” before you go for it and become successful.”

“I feel like I should probably ask you to leave. But I don’t really want you to go. I want you to stay, but I know you shouldn’t.- Hope”

“Listen, do yourself a favor. If you ask someone about something such as, “How are the kids,” make sure you really want to know.”
