“If I were honest, I’d say it only sort of gets better. That there’s always this part of you that got carved out. It’s a physical thing, I swear to God, and it’s the part that swells right before you cry. Eventually you stop hoping and start to fill it up with memories.”— Kathleen Hale, amazon.com
“But emotional experience is as real and as valid as physical experience.”— John Green, johngreenbooks.com
