Lisa Genova Quote

You're so beautiful, said Alice. I'm afraid of looking at you and not knowing who you are.I think that even if you don't know who I am someday, you'll still know that I love you.What if I see you, and I don't know that you're my daughter, and I don't know that you love me?Then, I'll tell you that I do, and you'll believe me.
