“When someone covets something they desire and lust over it. Usually it's something they can't have. You've always had that problem…”

“You might think you made a new world or a new self, but your old self is always gonna be there, just below the surface, and if something happens, it'll stick its head out and say 'Hi.' You don't seem to realize that. You were made somewhere else.”

“If you could just be nice, then you wouldn't have to worry about arguments at all. but being nice wasn't as easy as it seemed, especially when the rest of the world could be so mean.”

“When your time is up, your time is up, and you've just got to pray to God that you've done something worthwhile with your life.”

“At moments of great enthusiasm it seems to me that no one in the world has ever made something this beautiful and important.”

“Truth was, if you were going to believe something, it was best to believe in stuff that made the world seem a more interesting place.”

“Somehow, something always happens just before things get to the very worst. It is as if Magic did it. If I could only just remember that always. The worse thing never quite comes.”
