"Little lies that make people feel better are not bad, like thanking someone for a meal they made even if you hated it, or telling a sick person they look better when they don't, or someone with a hideous new hat that it's lovely. But to yourself, you must always tell the truth."

“There is more to this thing of love than meets the eye. I am going to have to think about this a great deal, but I don't think it will get me anywhere. I think maybe they're all right when they say there are some things I won't know about until I'm older."
