I've read a lot of books, so I know bunches of stuff that sounds like it could be true.
-
This is a wheelbarrow I filled with all my dreams & my favorite clothes & now all I need is someone to help me push it.
-
Sometimes I think I should just keep my opinions to myself, she said, but someone has got to be the voice of reason. -
I think we should make all the flags in the parade out of long underwear, he said, because then only the really fun people will come. -
You seem very calm for a woman who's getting married, I said & she nodded. It's on my to-do list, she said, so there's no point in agonizing about it
-
If I love you with all my heart, she said, what will you give me? & then she stopped & said I didn't have to answer that because she was going to do it anyway. -
I used to eat popcorn for every meal, she told me once. It made me feel like I was in the movies & my life would turn out happy in the end. Did it work? I said. I don't know, she said, but I like to think the roughage counts for something.
-
I used to think about starting a religion until I figured out who'd be my followers & I wouldn't hang out with those people if you paid me.
-
I used to hate birthdays, she told me, until I figured out I was the Queen of the Universe & now I do them for the little people. -
There are things you do because they feel right & they may make no sense & they may make no money & it may be the real reason we are here: to love each other & to eat each other's cooking & say it was good.
-
You're the strangest person I ever met, she said & I said you too & we decided we'd know each other a long time. -
What are the rules? I said & she said, Do exactly what I want whenever I want, make no demands of me whatsoever & love me forever, no questions asked & I said, how do you win? & she said, you don't understand. I'm the only one who wins & then she laughed & clapped her hands. Isn't it a great game? she said.
