“Lovers wound one another for many reasons, but in the end, fear is always at the root of it. It’s a hard thing, perhaps the hardest of all, to trust when we’re afraid—to open ourselves to the risk of forgiveness. But forgiveness is the greatest magic of all. Forgiveness makes all things new.”
― Barbara Davis, The Keeper of Happy Endings

“No one bestowed courage or freedom or self-determination—one simply decided to take it.”
― Pam Jenoff, Code Name Sapphire

“That’s what the past year had been—pendulum swings between all the panic and what-ifs that come with giving up on your life, and the wide, numb, blinking sense of shock that fills every space in between.”
