"Although I was trying to be normal, I had the energy of a rabid animal. My dukes were up and it must have been uncomfortable even for my closest friends." p. 138
"When life feels tough or unmanageable, it's good to look at something stronger or older than you are. I'm sure that's why a lot of people in trouble turn to the Bible." p. 140
"Planning meals, hatching plans, dog underfoot, boys asleep in bed. Family. As suddenly as crocuses, my broken little life didn't feel broken; it felt like a family." p. 197
