“It’s about time you stop dreaming and start creating. Don’t wait for things to happen for you—make them happen, Cooper, because I guarantee before you know it, you’re going to be an old fart like myself, not giving a damn about his socks and wondering how life slipped by so quickly.”

“Ford? Palmer?” The door that was just swung open shuts behind Cooper and Nora, who’s also dressed in a tight, formfitting dress, but hers is yellow, and she paired it with navy shoes. “What are you doing here?” Palmer’s eyes narrow as she points. “Are you bribing the baker with your manly ways?” “Oh good,” the hostess says, cutting in. “You all know each other.

“Let’s just say when I stood to take a leak, staring at a framed picture of the word “Pussy” wasn’t exactly what I expected in my seventy-plus-year-old parents’ house.”
Meghan Quinn, The Reunion
“That just because one family might seem perfect doesn’t mean that my family is any less. I learned it’s okay to fight. It’s okay to have miscommunications. It’s okay to have falling-outs, because personalities will change, they will morph, they will grow. And as long as you’re adjusting, accepting, and always there for each other, it doesn’t matter if you have disagreements, because there will always be love.”
