From Miss Congeniality 2 : Armed and Fabulous

He knows what it feels like to be rejected and humiliated and to feel your heart ripped out because you finally took a chance on that relationship and it wound up confirming all your worst fears that you are worthless and not worth caring about. - Gracie Hart

Temptation

Temptation comes to all of us.Whether or not we succumb,
depends on our ability to recognize its disguise.
Sometimes it arrives in the form of old flame, flickering back to life.
Or a new friend who could end up being so much more.
Or a young child who awakens feelings we did not know we have.
And so we give into temptation, all the while knowing, coming morning we have to suffer the consequences.

Choice

The choice to separate from what we love is painful.
The only thing worse is when someone we've trusted makes the choice for us.

Favor

Now and then, we all need a little help. So, we ask for small favors.
But it's always best to be wary of those eager to come to our rescue.
Because even the smallest of favors...carries a price tag.
Everyone has an agenda no matter what they may tell us.
And in those rare instances where there is no ulterior motive, we're so taken aback that we may fail to recognize the truth that a loving friend has just done us an enormous favor.

Unlikely Friendship

The world is filled with unlikely friendships. Odd pairings that, to the casual observer, make absolutely no sense at all.
But if we look closer we can see why these alliances form. After all, a shared purpose can give even mortal enemies common ground.

The world is filled with unlikely friendships. How do they begin;
With one person desperately in need and another willing to lend a helping hand.
When such kindness is offered, we're finally able to see the worth of those we had previously written off. And before we know it, a bond has formed, regardless of whether others can understand it.

Yes, unlikely friendships start up everyday. No one understands this more than the lonely.
In fact, it's what they count on.

Carry

We all carry something with us. Of course, it's nice if we travel with someone who can help lighten the load. But usually it's easier to just drop what we've been carrying so we can get home that much sooner. Assuming, of course, there will be someone there to greet us when we arrive.
Why do we clutch at this baggage, even when we're desperate to move on?
Because we all know there's a chance we might let go too soon.

From Sex and the City : The Movie

No matter who breaks your heart or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends. - Carrie Bradshaw.
