I gave in to a deep and healthy laughter that must have added ten years to my life and given birth to a thousand blue butterflies somewhere in the world.

My mother always said that plain can be pretty too.

And I think the city fell madly in love with her just then.

She was so pretty, not the kind of pretty that hits you at first, but the kind that blooms the longer you were with her. Like a flower, she was always like a flower to me.

Humans feel pain, they feel it hard and heavy and deep, and that right there is the only proof of life you will ever need.

Boys get real scared when girls say everything at once.

Her laugh was my favorite sound, and I think I was her favorite reason to laugh.

Music is the only place where time does not exist.

Why does everything move so fast when you are angry?
