But we keep pretending they’re right, until we can’t anymore, and then we divorce them or break up and we get up and try again, and again, and it chips away at our tiny human hearts. "
3 " Snow White! I remember her story. She was the one with the seven stunted humans looking after her. She cooked and cleaned and one day ate a radioactive fruit of some sort, and the creatures put her in a glass preservation tube and cried.” I blink. “That sounds a little different than the one I remember.

5 " Greedy to make things better for those you love. That isn’t greed at all. That is…well…love. And love is always noble. "
