"None of us can undo what we've done, or relive a life already recorded. But, ... there is no such thing as "too late" in life."

Renewal

"If you don't respect the other person, you're gonna have a lot of trouble. If you don't know how to compromise, you're gonna have a lot of trouble. If you can't talk openly about what goes on between you, you're gonna have a lot of trouble. And if you have different set of values in life, you're gonna have a lot of trouble.Your values must be alike. And the biggest of those values... the belief in the importance of your marriage."

And then what happens? When the life comes to an end?I shrugged."You see?He leaned back. He smiled."When you come to the end, that's where God begins."

Sacrifice

".. I thought about him now and then, the things he had taught me about 'being human' and 'relating to others;, but it was always in the distance, as if from another life.. .. The people who might have told me were long forgotten, their phone numbers buried in some packed-away box in the attic."
