Did you ever walk through a room that's packed with people, and feel so lonely you can hardly take the next step?

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

If you don't know there's an alternative, you can't miss it

My mother used to tell me that when push comes to shove, you always know who to turn to. That being a family isn't a social construct but an instinct.

After all, how many of us had tried to forget something traumatic...only to find it printed on the back of our eyelids, tattooed on our tongues?

You figured that the only way I'd be happy is if I did the things you thought would be best for me.

Three months ago, if you asked me, I would have told you that if you really loved someone, you’d let them go. But now I look at you, and I dreamed about Maggie, and I see that I’ve been wrong. If you really love someone, Allie, I think you have to take them back.
