“I knew that there were no guarantees; no way of knowing what came next for me, or him, or anybody. Some things don’t last forever, but some things do. Like a good song, or a good book, or a good memory, you can take out and unfold in your darkest times, pressing down the corners and peering in close, hoping you still recognize the person you see there.” ~This Lullaby

“To fall in love is awfully simple, but to fall out of love is simply awful.” ~Bess Myerson

“It wasn’t her warm breath in my ear, or her dark hair tickling my face, or her cold hand pulling at my arm, pulling me to her whisper almost desperately. No, it was the thing itself, the three words walking into my brain like they owned the place, changing everything.”

“Love that we can not have is the one that lasts the longest, hurts the deepest and feels the strongest…”

“Logic will get you from A to Z; imagination will get you everywhere.” ~Albert Einstein

“Everyone, at some point in their lives, wakes up in the middle of the night with the feeling that they are all alone in the world, and that nobody loves them now and that nobody will ever love them, and that they will never have a decent night’s sleep again and will spend their lives wandering blearily around a loveless landscape, hoping desperately that their circumstances will improve, but suspecting, in their heart of hearts, that they will remain unloved forever. The best thing to do in these circumstances is to wake somebody else up, so that they can feel this way, too.” ~Lemony Snicket

“I can’t help but remember everything. I mean, you see somebody and you think about all they’ve ever said and done. The good and the bad. It all comes back to you, and it feels so right and hurts so bad all at once.”

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” ~Leonardo Da Vinci

“If you can imagine it, you can achieve it; if you can dream it, you can become it.” ~William Arthur Ward

“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” ~Dr. Seuss
