Expiration Dates Quotes

“I loved the way his brain worked. How he was always trying to play devil's advocate--to see and appreciate sides that were not his own. And I loved how stubborn he was--steadfast. His confidence sometimes felt like a bulldozer, but other times it felt like a foundation--like I was tethered to something that could not possibly bend or snap or break. His personality made me feel safe, being in his orbit was like being inside the sun--the rays couldn't harm me, all I felt was the warmth of proximity.”

Of course it does. You can run but you can't hide.”

“There is nothing more terrifying than lying in a hospital bed and knowing your mom can't fix it. That she can't make it better. That no amount of bargaining with any doctor will carry you -- the both of you -- to safety. (Daphne Bell)”

“I often wonder what our responsibility is to other people, how much we owe them. Whose job is it to look out for our own happiness, Us, or the people who love us? It's both, of course. We owe ourselves and each other. But in what order? (Daphne Bell)”

“It's hard to hold on to people the older we get. Life looks different for everyone, and you have to keep choosing one another. You have to make a conscious effort to say over and over again, 'You.' Not everyone makes that choice. Not everyone can. (Daphne Bell)”
