“This is, Phoebe realizes, the one problem with falling in love with strangers. You don’t get to keep them.”
― Alison Espach, The Wedding People

“She loves deep, winding conversations that go up and down, especially in the dead of night when everyone should be sleeping. She has forgotten the way conversations, really good ones, can change her-- shape-shift her like a tree. Sometimes leave her bare, sometimes leave her fuller.”
― Alison Espach, The Wedding People

“Phoebe was regularly astonished by how awful her friends were to their mothers, and the mothers just took it, because the mothers knew that sometimes they were awful, too. The mothers had made their own mistakes.”
― Alison Espach, The Wedding People

“Phoebe believes a loving mother gives a person a kind of confidence to exist that Phoebe never quite had.”
― Alison Espach, The Wedding People
