“Sometimes it's the smallest secrets that hold the most hope, the most fun, the most danger.”

It's scary because you lose your companions and the whole world creeps up quiet and you slowly realize you're going to stumble upon a secret place where everyone will jump out at you.

Women are made like that. We have to teach ourselves not to become obsessed. True love lies in peace, not torture.”
