"Truth was funny, because it was an insistent thing, maybe as powerful and insistent as some force of nature, the push of water or wind. You could keep it out only so long, but it had its own will and its own needs, and maybe you could keep it at bay with lies, but not for long, not for always."

Quote_1.png
Vera Miles

"Lies, so often misleading and which form the substance of all conversations, are less effective in covering up a feeling of dislike or of self-interest, or a visit one would rather people did not know about, or a one-day fling one wants to conceal from one's wife - than a good reputation is in utterly overshadowing disreputable habits."

"So I put up with bad behavior in the name of loving the way I thought you were supposed to love."
Quote_1.png
Deb Caletti
"You have the ability to just go on and forget people and how much they are meant, but I don't. You can people in their own little boxes and leave them there. So much for love. So much for soul mates. I'm sorry you don't want to believe the best or how I can change. You put a stake through the heart. I'm the only one who cared enough to suffer like this."
Quote_1.png
Deb Caletti
"It was more work than it seemed, looking through a telescope, as the Earth was continually moving and you had to move along with it. You don't realize how fast this acutally happens, and it's kind of both creepy and wonderful when you stop to think about it. And it makes you realize there's absolutely no way to avoid change. You can sit there and cross your arms and refuse it, but underneath you, things are still spinning away."

"If time heals all wounds, and a book can hold a person's entire life, then you can speed up the process with a pulp time warp."

Deb Caletti
"And pity - people who inspire it in you are actually very powerful people. To get someone else to take care of you, to feel sorry for you - that takes a lot of strength, smarts, manipulation. Very powerful people."
Quote_1.png
Deb Caletti
"I had always had a little problem looking out for myself in love. I was afraid people would leave me. So I sort of clung and did everything possible to keep someone around. I didn't have a hard talk with myself about who I was keeping around. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. I clung to people like human life preservers. I thought i'd die if someone left me. Its ironic because now I'm the one who's leaving."

"We are thickly layered, page lying upon page, behind simple covers. And love - it is not the book itself, but the binding."

"Most of our parents wanted the best for us, I knew, but we also wanted the best for them."

"Forever is hard enough without it beginning now."

"We were right to come here, if only because the ocean reminded you that impossible things were possible. Miles and miles of the deepest waters that moved like clockwork were possible. Creatures like jellyfish and sea urchins were, too. Millions and jillions of the tiniest grains of sand to form one long, soft beach - yep, even that was possible."
