“Redzi, Džūd, dzīvē ar jaukiem cilvēkiem reizēm noteik kaut kas labs. Neuztraucies, tā nenotiek tik bieži, cik vajadzētu. Tomēr tajās retajās reizēs jaukajiem cilvēkiem vienkārši jāpasaka "paldies" un jādzīco tālāk, un varbūt jāpieļauj iespēja, ka labdarim arī ir prieks, un viņš negrib uzklausīt iemeslus, kāpēc labvēlības pieņēmējs neuzskata, ka ir tās cienīgs un to pelnījis.”

“Grief is selfish: we cry for ourselves without the person we have lost far more than we cry for the person - but more than that, we cry because it helps. The grief process is also the coping process and if the grief is frozen in ambiguity, by the constant possibility of reversal, then so is the ability to cope.”

“She used to think love was like a house. Once it was built, a person got to live in it forever. But now she wondered if love was more like a war with new foes constantly appearing and battles creeping up. Winning at love was less about succeeding in a battle and more about continuing to fight, to choose the person you loved as the one you were willing to die for, over and over.”
