...love is the sum of our choices, the strength of our commitments, the ties that bind us together.

I think that we have to consciously be aware that every moment we're in, every different stage in our lives, we can control.

It always takes two. For relationships to work, for them to break apart, for them to be fixed.

No scratch the word "career". Careers are people who wish to advance. I only want to survive, draw a paycheck. This is merely a job. I can take or leave this place. I start to imagine quitting and following my yet-to-be-determined passion.

you'd do anything to get a soul mate back, right?… I mean, that's the nature of soul mates.

I had never understood what people meant when they said they'd rather be alone if they couldn't be in the right relationship. Now I got it.

I think some of the biggest time sucks are regret and guilt, and I have to fight against those things all the time. In a way, it's a good thing, because it can motivate you to make amends and forgive, but regrets are really, I think, a supreme waste of time in many ways.
