"And they lived happily (aside from a few normal disagreements, misunderstandings, pouts, silent treatments, and unexpected calamities) ever after."

"Secrets have a way of making themselves felt, even before you know there's a secret."

"I'm starting to believe that happily ever after includes people doing things that upset each other. We all get cranky, or impatient, or worried, or careless enough to do or say things that hurt someone else. Like it or not, that's normal. We can't blame it all on Olympia's bad energy. The important part is that we feel sorry about what we've done and make up for it. That's something Olympia never did."

"I know it's important to do more than just complain when there's something you don't like. You need to try to do something about it, or you're nothing but a whiner."

"That cup of tea is definately not down your alley"
