“You. You are standing in your own way. And that means whatever it is scares you. It won't forever...but take your time. Nothing good was ever rushed.”

“Truth is worse than soap in the eyes.”

“You really are a chameleon, aren't you? Fitting in wherever you go."Aren't we all?" she said...”

“Life," said Simone St. James..."is stitched together from a series of mistakes, some little, some big, like the patches on the clothes we wore growin' up, you know”

“Regular people have such a hard time listening to the low hum of instinct.”

“I'm an old man now. Old on the inside. I'm a drunk, and I hate to tell you, but I'm not prepared to change. So you have to figure out if you want to forgive me and love me like I am, or run away again. Or hell, stay here and hate me. Just...know that I love you the best way I know how. I always have. I do the best I can.”

“The truth is, time marches on and you have two choices: You move forward, come what may, and you experience all the sour and sweet things that fly at you from around corners, or you sit still. Don't sit still.”

“The air between them began to settle into a silence. Awkward, yet softly exciting. Like an unexpected snow day.”
