Then turn your eyes back on me, and tell me that Cathy and I are still children to be treated with condescension, and are incapable of understanding adult subjects.

Love doesn't always come when you want it to. Sometimes it just happens, despite your will.

People make the rules of society, not God.

I don't think she's ever coming back.

I wish the night would end, I wish the day'd begin, I wish it would rain or snow, or the wind would blow, or the grass would grow, I wish I had yesterday, I wish there were games to play...

Grief, no matter how you try to cater to its wail, has a way of fading away.

Fool! Never wait on a man! Let him wait on himself!

Go on, glare your eyes at me, and cry and plead, and talk tome about money and what it can buy. But it can't buy back a child once he's dead!

We haven't remained idle, twiddling our thumbs while you were off having a good time. Through books Cathy and I have lived a zillion lives . . . our vicarious way to feel alive.

Look at you, standing there in your iron- gray dress, feeling piousand self- righteous while you starve small children!

And why is it all men thinkeverything a woman writes is trivial or trashy-or just plain sillydrivel? Don't men have romantic notions? Don't men dream of findingthe perfect love?

Life is made of the past, present and the future. We're shaped by our past, and we're shaping our future with our present.

Oh, Alice, you haven’t even had a taste of my romantic streak yet. And when the time’s right I don’t think I’ll have to ‘try’ to have my way with you. I just WILL.

Eternity hums with every beating heart, with every up-lifted voice, with the crash of waves, the whirl of wind across the shifting dunes, the cry of sea birds, and the trumpets of heavenly angels.

Can it be that man is essentially a being who loves to conquer difficulties a creature whose function is to solve problems?

Our state cannot be severed, we are one, One flesh; to lose thee were to lose myself.

The unity is brought about by force .

There are certain moments that you have to hit in a film, like when a character cries.

I dare anyone to play like Charlie Watts.

And I'm convinced that knowing the names of things braces people up.

O Marvelous! What new configuration will come next? I am bewildered with multiplicity.
