“A book can give you most things a relationship can. It can make you laugh, it can make you cry, it can transport you to different worlds and teach you things. You can even take it out to dinner. And if it bores you, you can move on.”
― Sarah Morgan, Sunset in Central Park

“Details are important when a day is special to you. But the difficult thing is that quite often you do not know a day is special until long after it is over.”

“You say goodbye to the people you love thousands of times in a lifetime: every time they walk out the front door; every time you hang up the phone; every farewell. You just never know which of those goodbyes is going to be the last one.”

“I think we should all live as if we are dying too – because we are, make no mistake. We should live as if we’re dying at some unspecified but possibly quite soon time. We can’t expect every day to be happy, and there’ll always be sickness and heartache and sadness, but we should never put up with a sad or a boring or a depressing day, just for the sake of it. None of us have time for that, whether we have a hundred days left or a hundred thousand.”
― Eva Woods, How to be Happy
