“some changes happen deep down inside of you. And the truth is, only you know about them. Maybe that's the way it's supposed to be.”

“Being
infected, being a vampire, it’ s always you. Maybe it’ s more you than ever before. It’ s you as you
always were, deep down inside.”

“Things just happen in the right way, at the right time. At least when you let them, when you work with circumstances instead of saying, 'This isn't supposed to be happening this way,' and trying harder to make it happen some other way.”

“The truth is, some relationships are supposed to last forever, and some are only supposed to last a few days. That’s the way life is.”

“Maybe some love was guaranteed. Maybe it fit inside you and around you like skin and bones.”

“Some feelings sink so deep into the heart that only loneliness can help you find them again. Some truths are so painful that only shame can help you live with them. Some things are so sad that only your soul can do the crying for them.”

“I'd love to tell you I had some deep revelation on my way down, that I came to terms with my own mortality, laughed in the face of death, et cetera.

The truth? My only thought was: Aaaaggghhhhh!”

“What you're supposed to do when you don't like a thing is change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it. Don't complain.”

“I tell you, deep inside you is a fountain of bliss, a fountain of joy. Deep inside your center core is truth, light, love, there is no guilt there, there is no fear there. Psychologists have never looked deep enough.”

“But then again, maybe bad things happen because it’s the only way we can keep remembering what good is supposed to look like.”
