For I need this scar over my heart to remind me. Crazy as it sounds, if I can bear the wound on my body, it lessens what I must carry on my soul. How he knew that about me, I cannot fathom.

He is not the same person as when we met, but . . . neither am I. Time has refined us, but instead of pushing us apart, we’re closer than ever.

Are you afraid of falling, baby? No, I’m afraid of landing. [He’s laughing, and I’m smiling.] Stupid idiot smile, don’t you know what comes next?

You don’t know what it’s like to be alone until you’ve had someone inside your head.

I couldn't help what I'd done before I learned it was wrong. I could only do better in the future.

He has to take me as I am, broken bits and all.

I’m as forgiving as the wall you hit at two hundred kilometers an hour.
