I know that there will be other women, but they couldn't compare. Maybe I'll change, maybe love will change, but I think we were a once-in-a-lifetime. You could never leave me; that's why I am not more upset. You can't possibly break these feelings. They stretch, and they last.

How could I not have seen this coming, when I looked into your eyes and vowed to be with you forever?

You could only save someone that wanted to be saved; otherwise, you'd be be dragged down for the count, too.

When you can not find someone, it is because you've been misdirected to look elsewhere

I learned a lot that night. For example, that part of being the magician's assistant means coming face-to-face with illusion. That invisibility is really just knotting your body in a certain way and letting the black curtain fall over you. That people don't vanish into thin air; that when you can't find someone, it's because you've been misdirected to look elsewhere.

Sometimes to get what you want the most, you have to do what you want the least.

don't say it. don't tell me that nobody's going to stare at me, because they will. don't tell me it doesn't matter, because it does. and don't tell me i look fine because that's a lie.
