“Because for you, quitting smoking would be like killing someone you love.”

“You like someone who can’t like you back because unrequited love can be survived in a way that once-requited love cannot.”

“Sometimes it was hard to express how much you loved someone. You said the words, but you could never quite capture the depth of it. You could never quite hold someone tightly enough.”

“Because hate's just the flip side of love. Like heads and tails on a dime. If you don't know what it feels like to love someone, how would you know what hate is? One can't exist without the other.”

“That sounds weird: "kill yourself." It makes it sound like you tried to murder someone, only that someone is you.”

“I wonder: If you think of someone you love, do you become a little more like them? I would like to think so.”

“You must not take out your sword because if you try to kill someone, you must die for it yourself. What you must do instead is kill yourself, kill your own mind.”

“There's really nothing quite like someone's wanting you dead to make you want to go on living.”

“No one snaps our composure quite like someone we love.”

“If you loved someone, really loved them, would you let them go?”
