“One of the first things I noticed about the man I’d eventually marry was that he spoke in clichés. Clichéd clichés, too, the kind favored by greeting cards and motivational speakers: Absence makes the heart grow fonder; what you can believe and conceive you can achieve; teamwork makes the dream work.”
“Honestly? I wasn’t into it at first.”
“But love is a funny thing. It will change you, if you let it.”
