“Funny how meaningful those small tender gestures can be: a friend picking burrs off your shirt, the ones you can’t get because they’re stuck in that unreachable spot on your back.”
― Craig Davidson, The Saturday Night Ghost Club

“You always fall hardest the first time, don’t you? There’s no bottom to it. As I reached teenagehood and beyond, I’d hear guys say: I just don’t get women. And sure, I didn’t get women either, but wasn’t that the best part, the not knowing? Where else could that wild, passionate, scream-it-from-the-rooftops love come from?”

“Sometimes love stories aren’t epic novels. Some are short stories, but that doesn’t make them any less filled with love.”
― Alissa DeRogatis, Call It What You Want

“That magic gets kicked out of you, churched out, shamed out—or worse, you steal it from yourself. It gets embarrassed out of you by the kids who run the same stretch of streets and grown-ups who say it’s time to put away childish things. By degrees, you kill your own magic. Before long your fears become adult ones: crushing debts and responsibilities, sick parents and sick kids, the possibility of dying unremembered or unloved. Fears of not being the person you were so certain you’d grow up to be.”
