Quotes12

  • Ben Holmes: Quoting Bishop Jeremy Taylor, "Marriage hath in it less of beauty but more of safety, than the single life; it hath more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful."
  • Ben Holmes: Sometimes the people we meet change us forever.
  • Ben Holmes: Sarah, everybody loves you, you just... you just think they're all wrong.
  • Sarah Lewis: I don't deserve heaven.
  • Ben Holmes: Oh Sarah, you deserve so much more than you think you do.
  • Sarah Lewis: What other options do we have? We have no options. None!
  • Ben Holmes: Yet somehow they seem more appealing than this.
  • Ben Holmes: I haven't known you that long, but I think there may be something wrong with you.
  • Ben Holmes: Bridge, ya know, I mean, what I always thought was that there was this one, one perfect person for everybody in the world, you know, and when you found that person, uh, the rest of the world just kinda magically faded away and... and you know, the two of you would just be inside this kind of protective bubble. But there is no bubble, or if there is, we have to make it. I just think life is more than a series of moments, you know, it's... it's... we can make choices and we can choose to protect the people we love and that's what makes us who we are, and those are the real miracles! Stop me when it becomes glaringly obvious that I have no idea what I am talking about...
  • Ben: It's from a bishop in the 16th century. He said, "Marriage has less beauty but more safety than the single life. It's full of sorrows and full of joys. It lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love. And those burdens are delightful."
  • Ben Holmes: Are you going to be here when I get back?
  • Sarah Lewis: You know me.
  • Ben Holmes: I would not presume.
  • Ben Holmes: [arguing with Sarah] My funeral is gonna be PACKED!
  • Bridget Cahill: Ben, in about five minutes we're supposed to be joined for eternity and I was wondering, um, if you were gonna get dressed.
  • Ben Holmes: Well if it's eternity, it can wait.
  • [laughs]
  • Ben Holmes: I think I'll just sit here and wait for the locusts to come.
