“So it’s true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love.”

“It's easier to miss her at a cemetery, where she's never been anything but dead, than to miss her at all the places where she was alive.”

“Some people, they can't just move on, you know, mourn and cry and be done with it. Or at least seem to be. But for me... I don't know. I didn't want to fix it, to forget. It wasn't something that was broken. It's just...something that happened. And like that hole, I'm just finding ways, every day, of working around it. Respecting and remembering and getting on at the same time. ”
