[little things i want to keep from this experience]
- my weheartit collection inspired by them
- a spotify playlist with songs that remind me of them
- [season 7, episode 2]
- paul: i want you to know you that are the single greatest blessing i've ever received. i mean... i don't know why we’re put us here on this earth, i don't know what they want from us, except that i've always known that i was supposed to be by your side and taking care of you and having a family with you and making you happy. in a universe that is 99% disappointment you are the one sure thing, you are the proof that life is good. you are my life.
- jamie: oh my god, don't ever die. "give me my romeo, and when he shall die, take him and cut him out in little stars, and make the face of heaven so fine that all the world would be in love with night." did i ever tell you i played juliet in the fifth grade? i did. opposite steven palumbo's romeo. oy. what an actor he was. he started crying during my monologue when he was supposed to be dead, because he said i was leaning on his arm. oh my god, don't ever die. i have so much more to tell you, and i'm not interested in telling it to anyone else. and i'm not saying i'd be helpless. i mean, i'm bright and fairly good with money. i mean, i guess i'm cute, right? you would say, "what, are you kidding me? you, my little friend, are a perfect example of beautiful." and so i am. 'cause i am nothing more or less than what i see in your eyes when you look at me. do you know how long i waited for you? my mother used to say i was too picky, or afraid of commitment, and that's why i was still unmarried by the age of almost 30. but the truth is, i was just looking for you. do you know how close i came to being a narrow, cold, mistrustful woman? but you have given me a life so big and full and good... and fun! i don't even know what we do, really, besides clean up and complain and wish we were sleeping, but with you, somehow... fun. and i'll tell you a secret. when we got married, i couldn't imagine still wanting to be with anyone all this time later. but i do. it's a miracle to me. you are a miracle. you've made me happy. which is something i never, ever thought i'd be.
- [season 7, episode 8]:
- paul: dear jamie, all i know is that i love you. and only you. if i've done anything to hurt you, i'm dreadfully sorry, i couldn't be "wronger". please forgive me my darling. love, paul.
- jamie: dear paul, i know i'm supposed to be unleashing my wrath in these lines, but as i sit down now to write them i find myself unable to summon my earlier anger. unable to say anything bad. maybe it's just that writing things down does them a permanence that momentary anger doesn't deserve. or maybe it's just that i love you, more than the moon and the stars and the earth in which these notions are to be buried. my sweetheart, i've already forgotten what it is i'm supposed to be angry about and all i know is i am ever yours.
