“Way I see it, there’s two kinds of family. There’s the one you’re born into and there’s the one you gather around you as time goes by. The first kind you’ve got no say about, and sometimes it ain’t quite right for you. You try to be a part of it but you just can’t. The second kind, though, you choose.”
― James Lovegrove, The Magnificent Nine

“Man is, that he may have Joy.”

“I am your Prince and you will marry me," Humperdinck said.
Buttercup whispered, "I am your servant and I refuse."
"I am you Prince and you cannot refuse."
"I am your loyal servant and I just did."
"Refusal means death."
"Kill me then.”
― William Goldman, The Princess Bride

“Aim high, but do not aim so high that you totally miss the target. What really matters is that he will love you, that he will respect you, that he will honor you, that he will be absolutely true to you, that he will give you the freedom of expression and let you fly in the development of your own talents. He is not going to be perfect, but if he is kind and thoughtful, if he knows how to work and earn a living, if he is honest and full of faith, the chances are you will not go wrong, that you will be immensely happy.”
― Gordon B. Hinckley
