“Your life can end at any time, and it can end more than once. But it can also begin more than once.”
― Michael R French, The Reconstruction of Wilson Ryder

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“When you're in love, there's nothing that can embarrass or surprise you.”
― Michael R French, Once Upon a Lie

“In our ever-changing universe, lives collide, and, like runaway planets, we just keep going.”
― Michael French, Once Upon a Lie
