We are tied to each other. We can hate and love, miss and loathe each other all within the same breath. We can never want to see each other again while never wanting to let go.

You can only forgive yourself for the mistakes you made in the past once you know you'll never make them again.

—Taylor Jenkins Reid in Maybe in Another Life

I think I have to believe that life will work out the way it needs to. If everything that happens in the world is just a result of chance and there's no rhyme or reason to any of it, that's just too chaotic for me to handle. I'd have to go around questioning every decision I've ever made, every decision I will ever make. If our fate is determined with every step we take… it's too exhausting. I'd prefer to believe that things happen as they are meant to happen.

—Taylor Jenkins Reid in Maybe in Another Life

I thought bad things only happened to people with hubris. They don't happen to people like me, people that know how fragile life is, people that respect the authority of a higher power. But it has. It has happened to me.

—Taylor Jenkins Reid in Interrupted

Life is long and full of an infinite number of decisions. I have to think that the small ones don't matter, that I'll end up where I need to end up no matter what I do.

—Taylor Jenkins Reid in Maybe in Another Life

Things happen in your life that you can't possibly imagine. But time goes on and time changes you and the times change and the next thing you know, you're smack in the middle of a life you never saw coming.

—Taylor Jenkins Reid in Interrupted

I loved you so much it sometimes burned in my chest.

—Taylor Jenkins Reid in Maybe in Another Life

The sun rises the next day after mothers lose their babies, after men lose their wives, after countries lose wars. The sun will rise no matter what pain we encounter. No matter how much we believe the world to be over, the sun will rise.
