“In a universe of ambiguity, this kind of certainty comes only once, and never again, no matter how many lifetimes you live.”
Robert James Waller, The Bridges of Madison County

“The human heart has a way of making itself large again even after it's been broken into a million pieces.”
Robert James Waller, The Bridges of Madison County

“This is why I'm here on this planet, at this time, Francesca. Not to travel or make pictures, but to love you. I know that now. I have been falling from the rim of a great, high place, somewhere back in time, for many more years than I have lived in this life. And through all of those years, I have been falling toward you.”
