- Sometimes you have to be apart from people you love,
   but that doesn't make you love them any   less. Sometimes you love them more.

   why on earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term.

- In the end you should always do the right thing even if it's hard.

- He was ordinary in a world that loved the extraordinary.

- She was a stranger now, but she'd been a friend once, and that was enough for him.

Gone with the wind:

"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn." 

"After all, tomorrow is another day!" 

"Sir,"she said,"you are no gentleman!"
An apt observation,"he answered airily."And, you, Miss, are no lady." 

"Dear Scarlett! You aren't helpless. Anyone as selfish and determined as you are is never helpless. God help the Yankees if they should get you." 

"I'd cut up my heart for you to wear if you wanted it." 

"Death, taxes and childbirth! There's never any convenient time for any of them."

"Until you've lost your reputation, you never realize what a burden it was or what freedom really is."

"You're so brutal to those who love you, Scarlett. You take their love and hold it over their heads like a whip."

"Life's under no obligation to give us what we expect. We take what we get and are thankful it's no worse than it is." 

"I can't go all my life waiting to catch you between husbands."

I liked to think that Bonnie was you, a little girl again, before the war, and poverty had done things to you. She was so like you, and I could pet her, and spoil her, as I wanted to spoil you. But when she went, she took everything.

 quotes from 'The Namesake' by Jhumpa Lahiri.

Try to remember it always... Remember that you and I made this journey together to a place  where there was nowhere left to go.

Pet names are a persistant remnant of childhood, a reminder that life was not always so serious, so formal, so complicated.  :)

Love who you love while you have them. That's all you can do. Let them go when you must. If you know how to love, you'll never run out.

I lift my lids and all is born again.

One must always be careful of books, and what is inside them, for words have the power to change us.
