“So, I guess people figure it's not as hard to lose your mother when you never got along anyway. But they're wrong. They're dead wrong. It's always hard to lose your mother. Always. If you loved her, if you hated her. If she smothered you, if she ignored you. It doesn't matter. She's your mother. Your mother. That's just a very tough bond to break.”
― Catherine Ryan Hyde

“What's weird is when you mean a lot more to somebody else than they ever meant to you. I mean, a whole lot more. Like life on two whole different planets.”
― Catherine Ryan Hyde, Pay It Forward

“There is no wrong way to perform an act of kindness.”
― Catherine Ryan Hyde, Pay It Forward
