Denny Harris Quotes

I think in the end, you would have stayed with me, out of obligation ... or maybe comfort. Maybe I was safe to you, and you needed to feel that. I know how scared you get of the unknown. To you ...

If Hunter hadn't been there, I would've picked up the phone to call Eric. I would've asked him to bring a shovel and come to help me dig a body up. That was what a boyfriend should do, right?

She looked at Word. "You asked about X-it. He's sleeping. There are no intruders in his consciousness. I've done a sweep.

It is terrible that we all die and lose everything we love; it is doubly terrible that so many human beings suffer needlessly while alive.

If you ever meet me, you will notice that I am a very simple person. I prefer Diet Coke over merlot. A hamburger over steak au-poivre. If I have done anything with my life it is because... when I really want to accomplish something- I always begin with the end goal in mind. I start with focusing on what I want to happen, then I work my way backwards. If you truly want to, you can make any dream possible. Have faith! ~ Jose N Harris
