"I think you were always pretending. Maybe you even fooled yourself. But one thing is certain. You were never an ordinary girl, and you could never had lead an ordinary life."

"I watched you change with the seasons.
I wrote you letters, but I forgot to mention that I'm a wreck.
I'm a mess, and you're a stranger."

"Before, my fear was being vulnerable. The ability of another human being to possibly tear apart your insides at any moment was enough to keep me running. He, however, made my insides come alive, my smile become permanent, laughter more frequent. He took away my fear and gave me hope. But more importantly, for the first time in my life, instead of wanting to run, he gave me a reason to stay"

"shawn: you know, he used to tell me how wonderful you were,
but guys always say great things about their girlfriends until they
break up. that's when the truth comes out. you know, i've waited
15 years to find out what he really thinks about you. do you wanna
know what he thinks about you now that you're broken up?
topanga: no. shawn i don't wanna talk about him.
shawn: now that you've broken up, he still tells me how wonderful you are."

"So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be."
