"I love to see those paragliders weaving softly around Moon Point, their legs floating above you in the air. When they drift in for a landing, their feet touch the ground and they trot forward from the continued motion of the glider, which billows down like a setting sun. I never get tired of watching them and I've seen them thousands of times. I always wondered what that kind of freedom would feel like."

"So now it's this thing I do.I go away, ever so often, by myself, for myself,to new places with foreign streets I haven't walked yet,and there I wander, up and down, watching people going places I don't knowand it always hits me that they're never alone,always with someone,and I wonder how they would spend a day all on their own in a foreign city with nothing to do and no one to see,and I wonder if they'd be happy.Just simply being free,like I am trying to be.Happy.Just simply being me."

"I was running and deliberately lost my way. The world far off and nothing but my breath and the very next step and it's like hypnosis. The feeling of conquering my own aliveness with no task but to keep going, making every way the right away and that's a metaphor for everything."

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

"I don't get why prom is like a mini - wedding these days...No one should spend that kind of money for a high school dance."
Trust
"We should have the right to have someone leave when we want, to only allow those in who we want in. But the truth is, people can force their way into your life whenever they choose. If they want to remind you forevermore that they exist, they will. They can reappear in a card or call or a 'chance' meeting, they can remember your birthday or the day you met with some innocuous small note. No matter how little they matter in your new life, they can insist on being seen and recognized and remembered."
Boundaries
"It was strange to have those papers signed. Like any big project or crisis that takes every waking and non - waking moment in your life, it was odd to have it concluded. A move, a college degree, a wedding - something long - strived - for is completed, whatever the outcome, and there is a huge space where it all once was. All that open time now, and a continuing nagging sense that there's something you need to be doing."
Ambition
"That's what people do who love you. They put their arms around you and love you when you're not so lovable."
Love
"Family was even a bigger word than I imagined, wide and without limitations, if you allowed it, defying easy definition. You had family that was supposed to be family and wasn't, family that wasn't family but was, halves becoming whole, wholes splitting into two; it was possible to lack whole, honest love and connection from family in lead roles, yet to be filled to abundance by the unexpected supporting players."
Family
"Those questions you have? Whether he's the one, whether you feel about him the way you should, or whether the relationship is going okay? When you're not sure whether you're in love with someone or not, the answer is not."
Love
