“I am really in love with Sam, and it hurts very much.”

“And things were back to normal except we were just friends.”

“Craig said the problem with things is that everyone is always comparing everyone with everyone”

“To tell you the truth I love Sam. It's not a movie kind of love either. I just look at her sometimes and I think she is the prettiest and nicest person in the whole world.”

“we are all supposed to think of reasons to live.”

“I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for thousands of years. Or just not exist..”

“I'm only being cute here. I don't really mean it. I just wanted to make you smile.”
