"Just accept as a fact that everyone of any emotional importance to you is related to everyone else of any emotional importance to you; these relationships need not extend to blood, of course, but the people who change your life emotionally - all those people, from different places, from different times, spanning many wholly unrelated coincidences - are nonetheless 'related'. We associate people with each other for emotional not for factual reasons - people who've never met each other, who don't even know each other exists; people, even, who have forgotten us."

They don't understand how easy it is for things to break apart, how someone you thought would be by your side forever can just disappear, or turn on you, or decide she likes someone more than she likes you. Parents always talk about romantic relationships being so ephemeral and fleeting in high school. What they don't get is that friendships can be the same way."

This explains why some friends and family members can be so demanding, smothering, and needy. It also explains why we're so easily inflated by praise and deflated by criticism. It's as if others have the ability to determine our identity for that day based on a word or even a glance"
Author: Mark Driscoll

Eventually I had to step clear of them-or I might have fallen into the temptation of allowing them to do just that."
Author: Mary Balogh

Om te beginnen moet één ding duidelijk zijn: met ons tweeën kan het niets worden. Nooit.''Maar...' zei Pinchas. 'Jamais.' Mimi voelde zich net een figuur uit een roman. (...)Hij leek gewoon niet te begrijpen wat ze wilde zeggen. Gelukkig schoot haar een zin uit een boek te binnen, die haar heel goed was bevallen en precies bij deze situatie paste. 'Onze harten zingen niet dezelfde melodie.' zei ze."
