“I think hell is something you carry around with you. Not somewhere you go.”

“I have so much of you in my heart.”

“Now I see that it’s time to let you go.”

“I feel keenly at times that I am not living as I should, as though I have stumbled drunkenly into a stranger’s existence.”

There is more extraordinary love, more love that you have never seen, out here in this wide and wild universe. And there is the love that will be ready.”

“Never apologize for burning too brightly or collapsing into yourself every night. That’s how galaxies are made.”
