“Yes, it can happen so quickly. Life as we know it can change in a blink of an eye. Unlikely friendships can blossom, important careers can be tossed aside, a long-lost hope can be rekindled. Still, we should be grateful for whatever changes life throws at us. Because all too soon, the day will come…”

“We know dangerous men walk among us. What we can't be sure of is who they are or where they hide. So the most we can offer any stranger is reasonable doubt. But once the doubt is gone, people are anything but reasonable.”

“People by their very nature are always on the lookout for intruders. Trying to prevent those on the outside from getting in.

— Marc Cherry, Annie Weisman, Mary Alice Young, Brenda Strong, imdb.com
“There comes a time when we must expose our weaknesses. When our secrets can no longer remain private, when our solitude can no longer be denied, when our pain can no longer be ignored, but sometimes we feel so alone that a weakness we thought we'd overcome suddenly becomes too long to fight.”
— Marc Cherry, David Schladweiler, Mary Alice Young, Brenda Strong, imdb.com
“Yes, we may think we're all destined to play certain roles, but sometimes those roles can unexpectedly change: a nervous student may discover a hidden confidence; a long time wife may confront a harsh reality; a busy mother may find her attention needed elsewhere; and a woman who wanted to do a litt…”

“Good friends are the ones who tell us the truth about ourselves...even when the truth might be something we're reluctant to admit—that we still have a great deal to learn, that we sometimes need to ask for help, that we maybe overlooking a golden opportunity. Yes, hearing the truth can often set us…”
