"Love: a single word, a wispy thing, a word no bigger or longer than an edge. That's what it is: an edge; a razor. It draws up through the center of your life, cutting everything in two. Before and after. The rest of the world falls away on either side."
"Find the things that matter, and hold on to them, and fight for them, and refuse to let them go."
"And now I know why they invented words for love, why they had to: It's the only thing that can come close to describing what I feel in that moment, the baffling mixture of pain and pleasure and fear and joy, all running sharply through me at once."
"Find the things that matter, and hold on to them, and fight for them, and refuse to let them go."
"You can't be happy unless you're unhappy sometimes"."
"Unhappiness is bondage; therefore, happiness is freedom."
