“But who can say what's best? That's why you need to grab whatever chance you have of happiness where you find it, and not worry about other people too much.

― Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

“Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.”
