197 Quotes by Katherine Center

That's what just hit me: How you really can't have everything. You have to give up the old to get the new. You can't be the child and the mom at the same time. You can't be your young self and your old self at the same time. You can't know what you know now and feel the way you did then. You can't, you can't, you can't.

We are at our finest when we take care of each other.

Don't let anyone convince you that love doesn't matter.

Our lives disappear, even as we live them.

We all carry our mothers inside us.

And so my hope for you, good boy, as you grow taller every day, is that you will learn to take good care of yourself, and you will learn to take good care of others-and, someday, you'll see how those two things are exactly the same.

Nobody was perfect. Not even close. And everybody had wrinkles from smiling and squinting and craining their necks. Everybody has marks on their bodies from years of living- a trail of life left on them. Evidence of all the adventures and sleepless nights and practical jokes and heartbreaks that had made them who they are.

We build our lives in moments, and even the ones we can't remember become the story of who we are.

Be brave with your life, so others will be brave with theirs.
