You might see a blue star, for example, and realize only later that it has a white dwarf as a companion - that first one shines so bright, by the time you notice the second one, it's too late. Jodi Picoult

What Gus in particular must reconcile himself to is that being temporary does not mean being unimportant or meaningless. John Green

Remember that when you no longer remember me, my child. P. L. Travers
