Ann Patchett Quote

There are always those perfect times with the people we love, those moments of joy and equality that sustain us later on...These moments are the foundation upon which we build the house that will shelter us into our final years, so that when love calls out, How far would you go for me? you can look it in the eye and say truthfully, Farther than you would ever have thought was possible.
