“Grownups! Everyone remembers them. How strange and even sad it is that we never became what they were: beings noble, infallible, and free. We never became them. One of the things we discover as we live is that we never become anything different from what we are.

We never meet them in our lives again, and we will miss them always.”
― Elizabeth Enright, Doublefields: Memories and Stories

“We need, in love, to practice only this: letting each other go. For holding on comes easily; we do not need to learn it.”

“The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.”
