“My point is, there are a lot of people in the world. No one ever sees everything the same way you do; it just doesn’t happen. So when you find one person who gets a couple of things, especially if they’re important ones… you might as well hold on to them.”

“Love, being in love, isn’t a constant thing. It doesn’t always flow at the same strength. It’s not always like a river in flood. It’s more like the sea. It has tides, it ebbs and flows. The thing is, when love is real, whether it’s ebbing or flowing, it’s always there, it never goes away. And that’s the only proof you can have that it is real, and not just a crush or an infatuation or a passing fancy.”

books are so beautiful; each page tells a story, literally and figuratively. the bent corners and loose pages, the stains and waviness of pages once wet; they’re all indications as to what type of people have read the book. they tell us where the book has been and let us simply imagine what it was doing there. the words tell a story too obviously, but i often wonder how that’s the only story people pay attention to.
