We each have our hiding places and we each put up with the little quirks of the people we love.

You have the rest of your lives to catch up together. After all, soulmates always end up together. [...] Ey-girlfriends are easily forgotten. Best friends stay with you for ever.

People forget they have options. And they forget that those things don't really matter. They should concentrate on what they have and not what they don't have. And by the way, wishing and dreaming doesn't mean concentrating on what you don't have, it's positive thinking that encourages hoping and believing, not whinging and moaning.

Life... It's a great and terrible and short and endless thing. None of us come out of it alive.

Children need close friends to help them grow up, to discover things about themselves and about life. They also need close friends to keep them sane

Nobody can pretend to know what people want to read or hear or see. People rarely know it themselves; they only know it after the fact.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with returning to the house you grew up in every now and again. It's good for the soul.
