people in my life who are gone now ... people who I am haunted by in different ways ...

"Faith is believing in something when common sense tells you not to."
-from Miracle on 34th Street

"Arthur always believed that the best answers for life's questions could be found in the movies. Crazy idea, huh?"
-from Dawson's Creek (Episode 4.14)

"This is about how when we go to the movies and you go to buy popcorn, you always make sure you bring back a napkin so I don't wipe grease on my jeans. And this is about how just last week when we were at miniature golf, you took all of the shots first so I would know the correct path."
-from Dawson's Creek (Episode 4.14)

"I stand before you aware of the similarities we share. I know that you're feeling, outside of my incredibly stage fright, the same things that I'm feeling -- pride and accomplishment, closure and regret, and a hopeful outlook on the future. But I don't think you need me to elaborate on those feelings. Instead, I wanted to share something personal and tell you that ... That people in my life who are gone now, people I miss very much and people who I am haunted by in different ways, but whether we're separated by death or merely distance, I know that they're still with me because I keep them in my heart. The truth is, in time, that's all we're going to be to each other anyway, this population of memories, some wonderful and endearing, some less so. But taken together, those memories help make us who we are and who we will be. So whether you're here and with each other now or you're merely in other's thoughts, remember each other on that road ahead."
