“There are no innocents. There are, however, different degrees of responsibility.”
― The Girl Who Played with Fire

“Sometimes you have to be apart from people you love, but that doesn't make you love them any less. Sometimes you love them more.”
― The Last Song
― The Last Song
“I'm sorry. I didn't know you were coming or I'd have cleaned up a little more. My life, I mean, not just the apartment.”
― The Time Traveler's Wife

“Maybe nothingness is to be without your presence,
without you moving, slicing the noon
like a blue flower, without you walking
later through the fog and the cobbles,
without the light you carry in your hand,
golden, which maybe others will not see,
which maybe no one knew was growing
like the red beginnings of a rose.
In short, without your presence: without your coming
suddenly, incitingly, to know my life,
gust of a rosebush, wheat of wind:
since then I am because you are,
since then you are, I am, we are,
and through love I will be, you will be, we will be.”
