“I can't say it. Now, at last, it becomes impossible for me to mouth the words -- I'm fine. I won't say anything.”
― Margaret Laurence, The Stone Angel

“You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three butterflies). Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“Let's look on the bright side: we're having an adventure, Fezzik, and most people live and die without being as lucky as we are.”
― William Goldman, The Princess Bride
