We never truly get over a loss, but we can move forward and evolve from it.

Death—the last sleep? No, it is the final awakening.

How do you go on knowing that you will never again—not ever, ever—see the person you have loved? How do you survive a single hour, a single minute, a single second of that knowledge? How do you hold yourself together?

Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.

No matter how crazy and funny the scene’s around you, it is useless without the person you want to laugh with.

It’s easier to miss her at a cemetery, where she’s never been anything but dead, than to miss her at all the places where she was alive.
