"Lines get old because people say them over and over," Hank said. "It's the same story - we all lose our charms in the end. I knew when we met with the cookies. I want to love you and take you pretty places. Yes, I have things wrong, but also I can walk through walls if you'll let me show you. Don't abandon this here. Don't find some other boyfriend and leave me alone with only the cats for company." He looked at her and there it was, the panic of screwing up heaven and earth if you were to say the wrong thing and seal the envelope. Someone can break your heart, leave you dead on the lawn, and still you never learn what to say to stop it all over again.
I guess that ultimately, what I'm trying to say is:
I don't believe in lasting relationships, I don't believe in Cloud Nine, I don't believe in Valentine's, and I certainly don't believe in love.
But the one thing I do believe in is that you can prove me wrong.
