― Martina Boone, Compulsion

“Repeat the good. And the bad. Do it all...and pile on the years.”
― Natsuki Takaya, Fruits Basket, Tome 23

“But the people who mattered were the people you chose instead of the people who were yours by an accident of birth. Real family was heart as much as, if not more than, blood.”
― Martina Boone, Compulsion

“Amanda Hamilton poem: “I must let go now. Let you go. Love is too often The answer for staying. Too seldom the reason For going. I drop the line And watch you drift away. “All along You thought The fiery current Of your lover’s breast Pulled you to the deep. But it was my heart-tide Releasing you To float adrift With seaweed.”
― Delia Owens, Where the Crawdads Sing
