“I don't know how you say good-bye to whom and what you love. I don't know a painless way to do it, don't know the words to capture a heart so full and a longing so intense.”
Laura Wiess, How It Ends

“Sometimes the hardest people to love are the ones who need it the most.”
Laura Wiess, Ordinary Beauty

“That's what innocence is, you know. A blissful oblivion of what's coming, of what you'll lose and what you'll gain, and what kind of person you'll grow up to be.”
Laura Wiess, Leftovers
