6 " The earth is resilient, but it’s hard to imagine a time when this place will be anything but a terrible reminder of what we as a people can do. "

16 " All the living want to do is care for the dead. And now they, too, are among the fallen. "

18 " I wish I could go back to who I was, but I'm different. "
19 " Things don’t always work out the way we hope. You just have to pick yourself up and find a new direction to go in. "
