“Vorrei poterti dire di seguire sempre il tuo cuore, ma non penso sia un buon consiglio. Tu ce l'hai, un cuore, è vero, ma hai anche un cervello e un'anima. E sono arrivato a credere che si ami tanto col cervello quanto col cuore. Il vero amore non è solo istinto, ma anche volontà.”
— Gabrielle Zevin, “L’altra metà del mondo”.
