I mean, if the relationship can't survive the long term, why on earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term?

I dont think that we're meant to understand it all the time. I think that sometimes we just have to have faith.

You are my best friend as well as my lover, and I do not know which side of you I enjoy the most. I treasure each side, just as I have treasured our life together.

Theresa, I know there's a part of you that believes you can change someone, but the reality is that you can't. You can change yourself, and Garrett can change himself, but you can't do it for him.

Our lives can't be measured by our final years, of this I am sure.

Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it.

You can't live your life for other people. You've got to do what's right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.

I'd learned that some things are best kept secret.

It is life, I think, to watch the water. A man can learn so many things.

Love doesn't mean anything if you're not willing to make a commitment, and you have to think not only about what you want, but about what he wants. Not just now, but in the future.

Deep in her heart, she wasn't sure she deserved to be happy, nor did she believe that she was worthy of someone who seemed...normal.

You are the answer to every prayer I've offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don't know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have.

Without you in my arms, I feel an emptiness in my soul. I find myself searching the crowds for your face - I know it's an impossibility, but I cannot help myself.

You're still alive. And that means you'll love and be loved...and in the end, nothing else really matters.

It was their secret, a secret meant for just the two of them, and she'd never been able to imagine how it would sound coming from someone else. But, somehow, Logan made it sound just right.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that you are there, in everything I am, in everything I've ever done, and looking back, I know that I should have told you know much you've always meant to me.

Spending time with you showed me what I’ve been missing in my life.

Love is Love no matter old you are, and I knew if I gave you enough time, you'd come back to me.
