Movie Quotes
"I know only that I didn't need to reach with my bare hands anymore. That seeing the fish beneath the surface was enough. That it was everything. My life -like all lives- mysterious, irrevocable and sacred, so very close, so very present, so very belonging to me. How wild it was, to let it be."
Cheryl Strayed Reese Witherspoon
"We're rich in love."
Bobbi Laura Dern
"What if I forgave myself? I thought. What if I forgave myself even though I'd done something I shouldn't have? What if I was a liar and a cheat and there was no excuse for what I'd done other than because it was what I wanted and needed to do? What if I was sorry, but if I could go back in time, I wouldn't do anything differently than I had done? What if I'd actually wanted to fuck every one of those men? What if heroin taught me something? What if 'yes' was the right answer instead of 'no'? What if what made me do all those things everyone thought I shouldn't have done was, what also had got me here? What if I was never redeemed? What if I already was?"
