Barry Quotes

“Si tienes amor, no necesitas nada más; y si no lo tienes, no importa demasiado qué más tengas”
― Laia Soler, Los días que nos separan

“Stop it, Barry,” Joanie said. “Get ahold of yourself. This is just how we work.”

I agreed. When she told Shelley I was useless, I heard the smile in her voice and knew she was pretending to be irritated. Really, she wouldn’t know what to do without my uselessness, just as I wouldn’t know what to do without her complaints. I take it back.

“You are both so cold,” Barry said that night.”

“...perhaps there's a reason our memories are kept hazy and out of focus. Maybe their abstraction serves an an anaesthetic, a buffer protecting us from the agony of time and all that it steals and erases.”

“You know, people meet and sometimes they lock into each other like two long-sought-after pieces of a puzzle.
Now, as time goes on, these pieces, they morph and they-they grow.
And they can grow together and become stronger.
Or they can become two completely different shapes that they don't have any room for each other, they don't fit anymore.
If there's one thing I've learned in my life, you can't control what other people are going to do.
No.
No.
They need their own space to become whatever weird-ass shape they're going to change into.
It's nature.
You can't control it, but you can accept it.”
― Monroe Fuches
