"I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond."

"In my memory her love shimmers, glimmers, and glitters the way light on black water reflects like diamonds, the treasure that was us."

"The fact that you can't see how much you're worth makes you worth so much more."She opened her mouth once, her brow bunched, but nothing came out. She didn't know the words to ask. I continued. "A diamond doesn't know how much it's worth; it's just beautiful because it exists."

"When we long for life without difficulties, remind us that oaks grow strong in contrary winds and diamonds are made under pressure."
