Transcend (Transcend, #1) QUOTES

1 " The people in our lives give color to our existence. When we love, we choose to let part of our heart—part of our soul—live inside of another person. Their happiness is our happiness. Their grief is our grief. And when they die … part of us dies too. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

2 " A single touch can say things twenty-six letters can’t even begin to say. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

3 " We don’t love with our brains, we love with our hearts. We love on instinct. Love is undefinable and resides in all of us. There are no requirements to love someone. Daisy was my first love. Jenna was my last love. Morgan is my forever love. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

4 " You were this feeling inside of me that shook me to the core. It wasn’t any one thing—your looks, your words, your voice, your demeanor—it was all of it … or none of it. I still don’t know. I just felt like I’d arrived somehow. And I still feel it every fucking day. "

8 " this is the epic proposal that you’ll tell our kids and grandkids. You pinned against my truck, in tears and pissed off at me. And me refusing to let you go. I will never let you go. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

9 " last goodbyes don’t RSVP. Take lots of mental pictures of favorite moments. And being present with the ones that matter most is the wisest investment of time. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

10 " Insecurities suck. But they make you fight to keep the important things in life. They’re a solemn reminder that emotions are not a choice; they’re a toxic mix of chemicals running amuck in our bodies, playing roulette with our relationships. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

11 " The people in our lives give color to our existence. When we love, we choose to let part of our heart—part of our soul—live inside of another person. Their happiness is our happiness. Their grief is our grief. And when they die … part of us dies too. "

13 " I’ve spent my entire adult life trying to convince myself I was too young to really love her. It has to be the trauma of losing her so suddenly at such a vulnerable age. Some people think kids are resilient. They heal faster because their cells divide faster. It’s true on a physical level. But … emotionally, I think what happens to us when we’re young changes us forever. A broken bone is nothing compared to a broken heart. One is a scratch. The other leaves a scar on your soul. "

14 " I’m not hitting on you. I’m just reminding you that touch is a basic human need, and it’s an expression of love.

So remember that the next time you count the hours I spend holding her while you’re at work. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

16 " The mind isn’t simply a dangerous place, it’s the most dangerous place. All that’s wrong, sinful, and evil starts in the mind. It’s ironic how the part of the human body that controls everything is also the most out of control part of the body. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

17 " It’s crazy to think of the big things that couples weather together and the little things that can undermine everything over time. These little things multiply like cancer and ruin even the strongest relationships. "

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)

― Jewel E. Ann , Transcend (Transcend, #1)
