Please don't judge me too much until you are older and know more things. (Spoken from mother to daughter)

A part of her wanted to tell him she still loved him, and that even though this love was hopeless and long over, it still consumed her year after year. It was a tangled hairball of feelings and she couldn't pull forth any one strand.

A loving soul was always more beautiful over the long haul, but actual prettiness was fleeting.

What Daniel taketh away, Daniel giveth.

I want to go where you're going. I'm not scared of dying. I want to stay together and come back together. You said that souls cohere. I want to stay with you.

Everyone is fragile. Everything beautiful is fragile

If you didn't have a choice, you had to make a choice. If you didn't have options, you made some. You couldn't just let this world happen to you... he didn't see eternity. He saw this girl and this moment and this one slim chance.
