Eman Said

“Gilbert?"
Some days I hate all those who know my name.”
― Peter Hedges, What's Eating Gilbert Grape

“Marry the man who’s going to walk with you through the next fifty or sixty years. Open doors, hold your hand, make your coffee, rub lotion on the cracks of your feet, put you up on a pedestal where you belong. Is he marrying your face and your bottle-blond hair, or will he love you when you look like whoever you’re going to look like in fifty years?”
― Charles Martin, The Mountain Between Us

“Waiting for somebody does that. It turns minutes to hours, hours to days, and days to several lifetimes.”
― Charles Martin, The Mountain Between Us

“And I remember that moment, when I knew. That you’d broken loose in me the stuff that only love breaks loose.”
― Charles Martin, The Mountain Between Us
