Real Quotes

Falling in love is very real, but I used to shake my head when people talked about soul mates, poor deluded individuals grasping at some supernatural ideal not intended for mortals but sounded pretty in a poetry book.

You look at, like, a 'People' magazine, which used to be a really good, you know, nice magazine you could go to for real stories.
