“We all long for what could have been.”
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah

“The only excuse I can think of is the truth – she’s broken. Until someone can figure out how to fix her, what else can she do?”
― Sarah Ockler, Twenty Boy Summer

“I just swallow hard.
Nod and smile.
One foot in front of the other.
I'm fine, thanks for not asking.”
― Sarah Ockler, Twenty Boy Summer

“It‘s complicated. I think when bad things happen—whether someone dies or people argue or split up—you get to a point where it‘s just too hard to go back. There‘s so much lost. So many versions of the truth. So many versions of how things might‘ve turned out differently. We all long for what could have been. For some people, it‘s just easier to move forward and try to forget.”
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah
