- from the Preface With the same heart that once liked someone so intensely, have I ever liked myself that intensely? To acknowledge and cherish myself is the most precious choice in the world, and an irreplaceable act of tenderness.
- from Have I Ever Been My Own Beloved? I cannot measure all of your dreams, your nights, your sleep, your sleeplessness. But this much I know: there is light. To us who have stayed awake through the long night, to us who have suffered through nightmares, still there is light, and therefore, there is morning.
- from Still There Is Light, and Therefore Morning Even as the days pile up and life grows heavier, even as we stagger before the next hardship the moment we have solved the last, we must remember: we were once the most precious gift in someone's world, someone's reason to keep going, someone who could become another's warm embrace.
