Splendid!


'Would you still love me if I were old and saggy?'
'Would you still love me if I were young and had acne? When I'm afraid of what's under the bed? Or if I end up wetting the bed?'

'We are defined by opportunities, even the ones we miss.'


'It's a funny thing about comin' home.  Looks the same, smells the same, feels the same.  You'll realize what's changed is...You'

'I want to remember us, just as we are now'

'You can be as mad as a mad dog at the way things went.  You could swear, curse the fates, but when it comes to the end, you have to let go.' Captain Mike.

'Everyone feels different about themselves one way or another, but we all going the same way.'

'If only one thing had happened differently: if that shoelace hadn't broken; or that delivery truck had moved moments earlier; or that package had been wrapped and ready, because the girl hadn't broken up with her boyfriend; or that man had set his alarm and got up five minutes earlier; or that taxi driver hadn't stopped for a cup of coffee; or that woman had remembered her coat, and got into an earlier cab, Daisy and her friend would've crossed the street, and the taxi would've driven by.'


'But life being what it is - a series of intersecting lives and incidents, out of anyone's control - that taxi did not go by, and that driver was momentarily distracted, and that taxi hit Daisy, and her leg was crushed.'



The one I love the most, 

'We're almost the same age.'
'We finally caught up with each other.'

'I know the circumstances and I've accepted that. Loving you is worth all of it'

Benjamin & Daisy
