You don't love someone because they're perfect, you love the... - Jodi Picoult, My Sister's Keeper
"You don't love someone because they're perfect, you love them in spite of the fact that they're not."
"You don't love someone because they're perfect, you love them in spite of the fact that they're not."
"See, as much as you want to hold on to the bitter sore memory that someone has left this world, you are still in it"
"If you have a sister and she dies, do you stop saying you have one? Or are you always a sister, even when the other half of the equation is gone?"
"See, as much as you want to hold on to the bitter sore memory that someone has left this world, you are still in it. And the very act of living is a tide: at first it seems to make no difference at all, and then one day you look down and see how much pain has eroded."
"if you tell yourself you feel fine, you will."
"The bottom line is that we never fall for the person we're supposed to."
