"Stand bloody tall - you're the All."
"Choose to be the best version of you."
"The fault in our stars is the inability to see that the world falls in love with fantasy, fairytales and magic in movies. Even religion asks us to believe in the most unlikely of situations.

Jane made herself into someone who could bear to be cut off from her lover, husband, father, child, brother, friend."
