“We love people for all sorts of different reasons and in all sorts of different ways, she says. Remember that. And it only gets better, the older you get. Young love isn’t necessarily the best love.”
Laura Spence-Ash, Beyond That, the Sea

“When you look back, it’s so easy to see the path that you’ve traveled. But looking forward, there are only dreams and fears.”
Laura Spence-Ash, Beyond That, the Sea

“There’s something to be said for talking while walking. You don’t have to look at the person. You can keep your eyes on the path, on your shoes, on the landscape. And somehow that means that more gets said.”
Laura Spence-Ash, Beyond That, the Sea
