1 " So what does forgiveness really do for you? Is it even a real thing? Or is it something humans just made up to make ourselves feel better? Or is it like the concept of time, something that actually exists, but our little brains can't really comprehend it, so we just measure it and give the pieces names until we've dumbed it down for ourselves? "

4 " "Seni çok özlüyorum" diye mırıldandı Ethan."Üniversite berbat.Sen yoksun.Bunun iyi birşey olacağını düşünmüştüm,sanki hiç kimsenin tanımadığı biri olmak beni rahatlatacaktı.Öyleydi de.Bir hafta kadar."

5 " Bundan sonra ne yapılması gerekliydi.Şimdi gidip Morgan’la konuşmalı mıydı*Tam olarak ne söyleyecekti?”Kendini kusturmaktan vazgeç,tatlım.Dişlerine zarar veriyor.”Ya da belki,”AKLINDAN NELER GEÇİRİYORDUN?” Veya dürüst olup,”Sana çok ağır,çok derin ve telafi edilemez hayal kırıklıkları yaşattığım için üzgünüm”mü demeliydi.

6 " The Magi in my life have always surprised me. They have often been people I initially felt I had nothing in common with. Sometimes I didn't even like them. But they came bearing gifts. Of wisdom, or acceptance. One or two came to give me a kick in the pants...and some left as suddenly as they came. They returned to their respective homelands or continued on their own journeys. I miss some of them... But we all have to find our way toward what ever miracle awaits us. And to perform miracles, when it is in our power to do so. Maybe the most important question is: how do I serve the Magi for others? How generously do I give my gifts - and not just to the obvious recipients in my life? How far out of my way do go to recognize and pay homage to miracles? Not very far some days. But on good days, just far enough. "
7 " We all miss people. I miss my parents, may they rest in peace. I miss my marriage when it was good. You don't have to stop missing. You just have to accept that missing doesn't mean you turn away your happiness. "
8 " We're all on loan. The only thing that makes sense is to be together. "

14 " Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog it’s too dark to read. —Groucho Marx, comedian and actor "
15 " Apparently it was cheap pig lard that had inspired the term ham, meaning a poor-quality performer. "
16 " You’re going too fast!” Winnie whined. “Your legs are too short,” I snapped. “You need a pair of stilts so you can keep up.” “Wouldn’t stilts slow her down?” Kit asked. Honestly, if my hands hadn’t been full, I would’ve pinched them both good and hard. "
17 " Harry was a sandy-haired boy we’d all had a crush on at one time or another, he was just that universally lovable. Funny when you wanted to laugh, serious as a priest when you needed advice, he didn’t have much in the way of answers so much as an appearance of deep interest in the questions. "
