"They had, finally, the only thing anyone really wants in life: someone to hold your hand when you die."

"The going rate for love is going away. And the more you go away, the more expensive it gets."

"Often people that settle in life are those that only do what they can with what they have and where they are. Never settle for someone that didn't know your worth from the beginning, or build a life without God in it. Live beyond your low expectations."

"I just...I just miss him. And I hate being so alone."

"Better not to invent her in her absence. Better to wait until she's actually here. Then he can make her up as she goes along."

"Why, then, did I always feel as if his happiness was my responsibility? It wasn't fair for him to burden me with that. It had never been fair."

"Her love is more aww than awe, and even if were awesome, I want aweall, not merely some awe. I’m greedy for the amazing."

"I have a Rubik’s Cube for a heart, and my love for you is no puzzle. Through twists and spins, life can only get more colorful."

"And for that one moment of freedom you have to listen to all that love crap... it drive me nuts sometimes... I want to kick them out immediately... I do now and then. But that doesn't keep them away. They like it, in fact. The less you notice them the more they chase after you. There's something perverse about women... they're all masochists at heart."

"He doesn't need to be reminded you're great."

"In a gust of guts and gusto, I told her of my love for her. Then, like a tornado, she spun what I said into something that terrorized Kansas."

"Dumped doesn't even begin to describe it. If you're going to use a trash metaphor, incinerated is more like it."

"When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but with creatures bristling with prejudice and motivated by pride and vanity."

"I’ve got a way with love. Away with love."

"Delusion detests focus and romance provides the veil."

"I had a dream about you last night... You tried to propose with a digital ceramic heater."

"A pure heart is superlatively rare and even more attractive."

"I spend the rest of the afternoon trying to explain to Zoe one of the very saddest notions in love and life: sometimes the timing is wrong--and sometimes you realize the heart of the matter way to late in the game."

"She is delightfully chaotic; a beautiful mess. Loving her is a splendid adventure."
