“I can accept that all I’ve ever wanted is not very special—all I’ve ever wanted, like most people, is proof of love.”
― Chloe Caldwell, Legs Get Led Astray

“But all of this would come later and take time, and perhaps it would take me longer than it would take other people but there were some who never left home, who never went anywhere at all.”

“You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light.

When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person died for no reason.”
― Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast
