Neil Gaiman Quote
You get on with your own life. Lettie gave it to you. You just have to grow up and try and be worth it. A flash of resentment. It’s hard enough being alive, trying to survive in the world and find your place in it, to do the things you need to do to get by, without wondering if the thing you just did, whatever it was, was worth someone having . . . if not died, then having given up her life. It wasn’t fair.
