“I don't know," I stuttered, "Do you love me?"His gaze was so intent the entire world seemed to stop. "You tell me. I never stop thinking about you. I worry about you all the time. Every beautiful thing I see reminds me of you. I can't finish my practices in Colorado with out wishing you were around," he said in a steady tone. "You tell me what I feel.”

“I love you so much I spend all day with you, and it still isn’t enough for me,” he kept going. I stopped breathing. “I love you so much, if I can’t skate with you, I don’t want to skate with anyone else.” Holy. Fuck. “I love you so fucking much, Jasmine, that if I broke my ankle during a program, I would get up and finish it for you, to get you what you’ve always wanted.” ― Mariana Zapata, From Lukov with Love
“Because I'm okay with you having ten other people be your favorite. But you're always going to be my favorite person.” ― Mariana Zapata, From Lukov with Love
“What would I gain from telling you the first moment I realized you were meant to be mine? Nothing. You’re supposed to protect what you love, Sal. You taught me that. I didn’t wake up one day and know I didn’t want to live without your horrible temper. I saw so much of me in you at first, but you aren’t like me at all. You’re you, and I will go to my grave before I let anyone change any part of you. I know that without a doubt in my mind. This,” he pointed between us. “This is what matters.” ― Mariana Zapata, Kulti
“I'm starting to understand that you can always make time for the things that matter.” ― Mariana Zapata, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me

“What no one tells you is that the road to accomplishing your goals isn’t a straight line; it looks more like a corn maze. You stopped, you went, you backed up, and took a few wrong turns along the way, but the important thing you had to remember was that there was an exit. Somewhere.” ― Mariana Zapata, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me
“Love to me was honesty. Being real. Knowing someone's best and worst. Love was a push that said someone believed in you when you didn't.” ― Mariana Zapata, From Lukov with Love
“When life gives you lemons, you get to choose what you make out of them; it doesn’t always have to be lemonade.” ― Mariana Zapata, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me

“Destiny is a ladder, a series of steps that takes you where you’re supposed to go.” ― Mariana Zapata, Kulti
