“The things we fear the most are often the things we should fear the least. It’s irrational, but it’s what makes us human. And if we’re able to conquer those fears, then there is nothing we’re not capable of.”

“But I could keep going forever, listing all my flaws in order from the most innocuous to the least. I am afraid of spiders... I fall in love too easily... I have fierce spells of self-doubt. Because in the conversation beneath this one, what we're really saying is I am an imperfect person. Here are my failures. Do you want me anyway ?”

“I used to tease Kyra about her fascination with comics, but she took it in stride.
"People have used art and graphics to tell stories for centuries," she said once. "We could all do with more heroes and tricksters and storytellers."

“We love films because they make us feel something. They speak to our desires, which are never small. They allow us to escape and to dream and to gaze into eyes that are impossibly beautiful and huge. They fill us with longing.
But also.
They tell us to remember; they say, how much is hurts to have your heart broken. Remember about death and suffering and the complexities of living. Remember what it is like to love someone. Remember how it is to be loved. Remember what you feel in this moment. Remember this. Remember this.”
