One True Loves Quotes

“Just because something isn't meant to last a lifetime doesn't mean it wasn't meant to be. We were meant to have been. You and I aren't going to spend our lives together...But I finally understand that that doesn't take away any of the beauty of the fact that we were right for each other once. True love doesn't always last...It doesn't always have to be for a lifetime. And that doesn't mean it's not true love. It was real. And now it's over. And that's OK. "I am who I am because I loved you once," he says "I am who I am because I loved you once. too”

“Adults love to tell teenagers that “one day” and “sooner or later” plenty of things are going to happen. They love to say that things happen “before you know it,” and they really love to impart how fast time “flies by.” I would learn later that almost everything my parents told me in this regard turned out to be true. College really did “fly by.” I did change my mind about Keanu Reeves “sooner or later.” I was on the other side of thirty “before I knew it.” And, just as my father said that afternoon, “one day” I was going to need my sister very, very much.”
