"Hilly." I just need to hear her say it.
"Just who is all that pound cake money being raised for, anyway?"
She rolls her eyes. "The Poor Starving Children of Africa?"

“That he'll never let you down. That boy's got a heart the size of Kentucky, and he loves you. That's important. Take it from someone who knows. My mom used to tell me that whatever you do, marry someone who loves you more than you love him. And I listened to her. Why do you think Henry and I get along so well? I'm not saying that I don't love him, because I do. But if I ever left Henry or something, God forbid, ever happened to me, I don't think he'll be able to go on. And that guy would risk his life for mine in a heartbeat.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Guardian

“A veces tenemos pensamientos que ni tan solo nosotros comprendemos. Pensamientos que ni tan siquiera son ciertos —ya que en realidad no nos sentimos así—, pero que se nos pasan por la cabeza de todas formas porque es interesante pensar en ellos.”
