What if love wasn't the act of finding what you were missing but the give-and-take that made you both match? - Jodi Picoult

Do you know what it's like to love someone so much, that you can't see yourself without picturing her? Or what it's like to touch someone, and feel like you've come home? What we had wasn't about sex, or about being with someone just to show off what you've got, the way it was for other kids our age. We were, well, meant to be together. Some people spend their whole lives looking for that one person. I was lucky enough to have her all along.

I thought lightning wasn't supposed to strike in the same place twice....sure it does...but only if you're too dumb to move.

I've always sort of wondered: If everyone else's opinion is what matters, then do you ever really have one of your own?
