The Passage of Love Quotes

“She said evenly, ‘We’re both doing our best. That’s what we’re doing. It isn’t everything the dream of love is supposed to be, but it’s the best we can do. It’s us, isn’t it? This is who we are. You and I doing our best. That will have to be enough, won’t it? Haven’t we learned not to make foolish promises to each other and to ourselves? It’s harder than we thought it was going to be. We’ve learned that. It’s not as simple as we thought it was. We’re no longer the people we were then.”
― Alex Miller, The Passage of Love
