“Because after suffering a loss, you become a ghost in your own body. You observe yourself doing things and saying things that you might not normally do or say. You need something to ground you and prove to you that you’re still here. As a way of feeling something. Anything.”
― Jennifer Niven, Breathless

“So what scares you most? With us?”
I give this a little thought. “That you’ll be really into me one day and the next day you won’t be, and I won’t see it coming. Because apparently feelings can change overnight. Maybe it’s me. Maybe I’m too much. Or maybe I’m not enough.”
― Jennifer Niven, Breathless

“I am staring at the place where the floor used to be. All I can think is how one minute the floor was there and now it’s not. How you could go through an entire day, every day, not thinking about the floor or the ground
because you just assume it will always be there. Until it isn’t.”
― Jennifer Niven, Breathless

“Don’t miss out on something good, simply because it’s different.”
― Claire Daverley, Talking at Night
