Oh, Jack, she said, leaning against him again. Please, I don't want to ever fight with you. He lifted her chin with a finger. Don't be a candy ass. You fought good. You won, as a matter of fact. But it was awful. There have been times since this thing with Brie that you've been so far away. It just… It frightens me. You should never be afraid. Not while you're my wife. It's my job to make sure you're never afraid. Then know this-all I want is to die in your arms. I can't live a day without you. Do you get that? He nodded, but he said, No dying allowed. We're going to get old and very wrinkly together. I insist on it. *

Small towns are like metronomes; with the slightest flick, the beat changes.
by Mitch Albom
Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search. And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end? I shrugged. You see? He leaned back. He smiled. When you come to the end, that's where God begins.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.

My life amounts to no more than one drop in a limitless ocean. Yet what is any ocean, but a multitude of drops?

But love takes many forms, and it is not the same for any man and woman. What people find then is a certain love.
