When you have been burned by fire once, you don't leap into the flames again.

When you love someone you let them take care of you.

I think people do things all the time in the name of love that they shouldn't be doing - such is the nature of us.

She's not like anyone I've ever seen before. When I'm not with her, I want to be. And when she opens the book and I see her face, I can barely remember what I'm supposed to say, much less how to speak at all." I test the words on my tongue. "I think I might be in love with her. But how can I really know, since the only love I've ever experienced was written for me?

At home I was raped by a guy i thought I loved' Trixie said, because thats what it was to her and always would be.

People have to experience things that terrify them. If they don't, how will they ever come to appreciate safety?

If you focus on sandbagging the beachhead, you can ignore the tsunami that's approaching. Try it any other way and you'll go crazy.
