Once a person knows a kiss and a kind word, you can't blame him for never wanting
to live without them again.
The human heart has a way of making itself large again even after it's been broken into a million pieces.
In a universe of ambiguity, this kind of certainty comes only once, and never again, no matter how many lifetimes you live.
The old dreams were good dreams; they didn't work out but I'm glad I had them.
It's clear to me now that I have been moving toward you and you toward me for a long time. Though neither of us was aware of the other before we met, there was a kind of mindless certainty bumming blithely along beneath our ignorance that ensured we would come together. Like two solitary birds flying the great prairies by celestial reckoning, all of these years and lifetimes we have been moving toward one another.
Analysis destroys wholes. Some things, magic things, are meant to stay whole. If you look at their pieces, they go away.
The heart never forgets, never gives up, the territory marked off for those who came before.
And in that moment, everything I knew to be true about myself up until then was gone. I was acting like another woman, yet I was more myself than ever before.
