I will think of you every time I need to be reminded that there is beauty and goodness in the world.

I didn't say to act dead. I said act helpless.

Sometimes we get through adversity only by imagining what the world might be like if our dreams should ever come true.

Was life nothing more than a storm that constantly washed away what had been there only a moment before, and left behind something barren and unrecognizable?

If you aren't the woman I think you are, then this isn't the world I thought it was.

We none of us find as much kindness in this world as we should.

What an unbearable sorrow it would be, to realized I'd never really tasted to things I'd eaten, or seen the places I'd been. What life would I have? I would be like the dancer who had practiced since childhood for a performance she would never give.
