If there's something as good as [him] in my life, I'm going to pay for it.

Just so you know: if this ever happens to you, you will not be ready.

You know, Michael, I used to sit around looking for a way to make sense of what happened, like there was some kind of answer I could find if I just looked hard enough. Then one day I realized that if there had been one, Dave would still be here. And I wondered if this...this feeling that I couldn't figure it all out...was what Dave had been feeling, too.

It was the first time she'd discovered something she really didn't want to find, and she didn't know what to do once she'd found it.

Just because fate had thrown another obstacle in my way didn't mean I had to give up my dreams.

For someone who can’t remember very much, there seems to be a lot I can’t forget.

I told myself that if I didn't care, this wouldn't have hurt so much - surely that proved I was alive and human and all those touchy-feely things, for once and for all. But that wasn't a relief, not when I felt like a skyscraper with dynamite on every floor.
