“ You told me once of the plants that lie dormant through the drought, that wait, halfdead, deep in the earth. The plants that wait for the rain. You said they'd wait for years, if they had to; that they'd almost kill themselves before they grew again. But as soon as those first drops of water fall, those plants begin to stretch and spread their roots. They travel up through the soil and sand to reach the surface. There's a chance for them again. ”

“ A broken heart in real life isn't half as dreadful as it is in books. It's a good deal like a bad tooth, though you won't think THAT a very romantic simile. It takes spells of aching and gives you a sleepless night now and then, but between times it lets you enjoy life and dreams and echoes and peanut candy as if there were nothing the matter with it. ”
- Lucy Maud Montgomery- Copy

“ I think of the postmodern attitude as that of a man who loves a very cultivated woman and knows that he cannot say to her "I love you madly", because he knows that she knows (and that she knows he knows) that these words have already been written by Barbara Cartland. Still there is a solution. He can say "As Barbara Cartland would put it, I love you madly". At this point, having avoided false innocence, having said clearly it is no longer possible to talk innocently, he will nevertheless say what he wanted to say to the woman: that he loves her in an age of lost innocence. ”

“ It is time to step up. It is time to rise up and claim our power, our selfworth, to find our true inner strength and to reclaim it. Step into it. Use it. We have the unlimited strength within us to birth, to create, to bring to life our purest intentions. This is about rising up by ourselves and for ourselves. This is about finding our innate strength so we can heal, repair, nourish and reflect in whatever way we need to. Our worlds needs us. Our children need us. Our men need us. We are the ones we've been waiting for. ”

“ If I breathe you in and you breathe me out, I swear we can breathe forever. I swear I’ll find summer in your winter and spring in your autumn and always, hands at the ends of your fingers, arms at the ends of your shoulders and I swear, when we run out of forever, when we run out of air, your name will be the last word that my lungs make air for. ”
