And I, who have never thought in terms of a life, think to myself that I could make a life out of this.

me: you know what sucks about love? o.w.g.: what? me: that it's so tied to the truth.

There comes a time when the body takes over the life. There comes a time when the body’s urges, the body’s needs, dictate the life. You have no idea you are giving the body the key. But you hand it over. And then it’s in control. You mess with the wiring and the wiring takes charge.

need is never a good basis for any relationship. it has to be much more than that.

Do not just seek happiness for yourself. Seek happiness for all. Through kindness. Through mercy.

People say that time slips through our fingers like sand. What they don't acknowledge is that some of the sand sticks to the skin. These are memories that will remain, memories of the time when there was still time left.

When we’re alone together, I’m the destination. When I’m here in her life at school, I’m the disruption.
