go on

Good memories tell you that your past was worth it,

bad ones tell you that you were strong enough

to go on.

The single-bullet theory

Everybody's got one person out there.

One bullet.

And if you're lucky in life, you get to meet that person.

And once you do, once you're shot through the heart, then there's nobody else.

No matter what happens -- death, divorce, infidelity, whatever -- nobody else can ever come close.

- Michael Connelly, The Scarecrow Have you been shot?
