Quotes
-
Peyton : What are we doing? You know, you've been here three weeks, Ellie, and all we've talked about is music and the CD and business. But it's not just a business arrangement, is it?
Ellie : Of course not.
Peyton : I need you to talk to me about your cancer.
Ellie : It's okay.
Peyton : No. No, it's not okay. How can you just act like nothing's wrong? Aren't you afraid? Because I am afraid for you.
Ellie : Don't be afraid, Peyton. Every song has a coda, a final movement. Whether it fades out or crashes away, every song ends. Is that any reason not to enjoy the music?
Peyton : It doesn't mean I can't want it to not end.
Ellie : Look at you. You've had more life-changing events in the first 17 years of your life than I'd wish on anyone. You got the surviving part down. I want you to focus more on the living.
Peyton : Sometimes surviving is about all the living I can handle.
Ellie : I don't buy that for one second. And if you keep this up, hiding in your art and your sadness, you're really gonna miss out. Because the truth is: there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just life.
