Sometimes you have to be apart from people you love, but that doesn't make you love them any less. Sometimes you love them more.

Never forget that anticipation is an important part of life. Work's important, family's important, but without excitement, you have nothing. You're cheating yourself if you refuse to enjoy what's coming.

You have to promise you won't fall in love with me.

After all, if there is a heaven, we will find each other again, for there is no heaven without you.

I think that enduring, committed love between a married couple, along with raising children, is the most noble act anyone can aspire to. It is not written about very much.

In all love stories the theme is love and tragedy, so by writing these types of stories, I have to include tragedy.

You're a hero and a gentleman, you're kind and honest, but more than that, you're the first man I ever truly loved. And no matter what the future brings, you always will be, and I know that my life is better for it.
