Each time, I think I'm never going to write another book. It never gets easier.

When you had to do something, you had to do it. And eventually, if you were lucky, you did it well.

The truth was, I wasn't sure. But I wanted to keep believing people could change, and it was certainly easier to do so when you were in the midst of it.

No matter how much time has passed, these things still affect us and the world we live in. If you don't pay attention to the past, you'll never understand the future. It's all linked together.

Just because we don’t see eye to eye on everything doesn’t mean we can’t be close.

As I rolled over, stretching out, my only thought was to go back to the dream I'd been having, which I couldn't remember, other than that it had been good, in that distant, hopeful way unreal things can be.

It’s the things you fight for and struggle with before earning that have the greatest worth.
