“I wanted to help."
"Shouldn't that count for something?"
"What, just wanting to?" She shook her head, leaning away from him. "I know people say that it's the thought that counts, but here in the real world, good intentions are about as useful as fairy wands and wishes. Nothing matters but what a person does."
"I don't agree," he said simply.”
