"Real love, I've learned, is a very, very strong form of forgiveness. I don't think people yearn for love because they hate staying home alone on a Saturday night or because they dread going to restaurants alone.

They want someone to look past the surface of stuff like bad hair days, and a too-loud laugh, or potato chips crunching in their living room sofa when anyone sits down."-Lois Smith Brady
