I guess no one stays friends for more than thirty years without broken hearts along the way.

That was what a best friend did: hold up a mirror and show you your heart.

Of course you can fall in love. You just have to let yourself. They don't call it falling for nothing. -Kate

It had been years since she question his fidelity, but he'd stepped on to the old fame track again, and that was where the road had taken them before. Infidelity could be forgiven, but forgetting it was impossible. Strangely, that wasn't what bothered her the most. What bothered her was that she didn't really care.

Sometimes you simply made the wrong choice and you had to live with it. You could only change the future.

I might screw up, I might embarrass you, I might yell at you, but I will never, ever stop loving you. You're my first born. The first time I held you... I fell in love so hard it cracked my bones.

It was true; always had been. Friendships were like marriages in that way. Routines and patterns were poured early and hardened like cement.
