If I did something to hurt Frankie and she said that I was never getting near her heart again, I’d spent the rest of my life trying anyway. That’s the difference between you and me, Tom. I’d go back to the moment it all fell apart and I’d start there.

Melina Marchetta
It's funny how you can forget everything except people loving you. Maybe that's why humans find it so hard getting over love affairs. It's not the pain they're getting over, it's the love.
Melina Marchetta
What if she's all I give you in this life of ours, my love? she asked quietly. Then I'll shout at the goddess in fury, he said fiercely. I'll beg to know why I've been given so much when other men have so little.
Melina Marchetta
Love’s easy. It kind of comes with the territory. But liking is another story.
Melina Marchetta
I've been passionate about two things in my life. One was Christina Alibrandi. The other is Josephine Alibrandi.
Melina Marchetta
Tom always did anger well. Hid it well, but showed it even better
Melina Marchetta
The truth doesn't set you free, you know. It makes you feel awkward and embarrassed and defenseless and red in the face and horrified and petrified and vulnerable.
Melina Marchetta
Sometimes I feel like a junkie. One minute something happens in my life and I'm flying. Next minute I take a nose-dive and just as I'm about to hit the ground with full force something else will have me flying again.
