Alexandra

“She was like a lone angel floating above the surface of the earth, laughing with delight because she could fly but crying out of loneliness.”
― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

“The heart was a weak, changeable thing, bent on nothing but love, and there could be no more fatal mistake than to make it your master. Reason must be in charge. It comforted you for the heart's foolishness, it sang mocking songs about love, derided it as a whim of nature, transient as flowers. So why did she still keep following her heart?”
― Cornelia Funke, Inkdeath

“The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected. Maybe they always have been and will be. Maybe we've lived a thousand lives before this one and in each of them we've found each other. And maybe each time, we've been forced apart for the same reasons. That means that this goodbye is both a goodbye for the past ten thousand years and a prelude to what will come.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“There were people everywhere on the city street, but the stranger could not have been more alone if it were empty.”
― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief
