“There was a small part of me that was still childish, stubborn in her hope, thinking I could somehow have everything.

That something must be given up for something to be gained. Everything on a scale, a weighing of desires, an ordering of which you want more--and what you'd be willing to give for it.”
― Megan Miranda, All the Missing Girls
