You want to move on, but to do that you have to let her go, and you don't want to let her go, so you don't move on.

I’m living in separate universes, and I have no idea where I actually belong.

I loved her for so long. Our past trails behind us like a comet's tail, the future stretched out before us like the universe. Things happen. People get lost and love breaks.

I may not be old but I’m too old to have this much nothing

Everyone always wants to know how you can tell when it's true love, and the answer is this: when the pain doesn't fade and the scars don't heal, and it's too damned late.

Sometimes it’s heartbreaking to see your siblings as the people they’ve become. Maybe that’s why we all stay away from each other as a matter of course.

It would be a terrible mistake to go through life thinking that people are the sum total of what you see.

I blame Hollywood for skewing perspectives. Life is just a big romantic comedy to them, and if you meet cute, happily ever-after is a forgone conclusion.

If men think that a ruler is religious and has a reverence for the Gods, they are less afraid of suffering injustice at his hands.

We're gonna rock around the clock.

Weak, tea-drinking, effeminate, ineffectual--masters of India, robbers of South Africa, bedevillers of all Europe.

But calm, white calm, was born into a swan.

One nice thing that I have discovered about Los Angeles is the enthusiasm with which people dress.

It's only a wonderful world if you can make it that way. There are no street signs pointing to Paradise Road.

But I think, if you're in the spotlight, people are going to say bad things, and that's just the way it is.
