“Sam feels the loss of her old life like a wound. The world is full of lasts, she thinks. The last time you pick up your child. The last time you hug a parent. The last time you cook dinner in a house full of the people you love. The last time you make love to the husband you once adored who will walk away from you because you turned into a crazy, resentful hormone-fueled idiot. And with all these moments you don’t know that this will be the last or you would be overwhelmed by the poignancy of them, hang on to them like someone unhinged, bury your face in them, never let them go.”
― Jojo Moyes, Someone Else's Shoes

“Death can take away your friends and pets, but it can't take away the weird shit they did.”
― Allie Brosh, Solutions and Other Problems

“And now I can never unknow the truest true thing - the intensity of the love you feel will match the intensity of its loss. This is practically physics.”
― Annabel Monaghan, Summer Romance
