A heart is a fragile thing. That's why we protect them so vigorously, give them away so rarely, and why it means so much when we do. Some hearts are more fragile than others, purer somehow. Like crystal in a world of glass. Even the way they shatter is beautiful.

Valentine
Dear Valentine, come away with me. If I had a day with you, and you only, I would enjoy the simple things. The things that, in the end, when time steals the rest away, are the only things we'll remember. I would paddle you across a still lake in a rowboat, and read poetry to you until you fell asleep, and I would never ever think about the hours.
Dear Valentine, if I had one day with you, and you only, I would admire every line of your face, every strand of your hair, every graceful movement of your hands or your eyes or your body. If I had one perfect day.
Don't you see? My heart beats only for you.

Dear Valentine, these are the things I remember of my love. A warm hand, your warm breath, your warm mouth, your arms around mine. I remember feeling safe, ceaseless, like one person, the two of us still, at rest, entwined. I remember how I felt the first time I kiss you. It felt like the high dive.
What do you remember? How will I ever know what was inside your heart? Where do they go? All the things we think and feel, but don't say?
--- --- ---
Dear Valentine, these are the things I never told you. These are the things I need you to know. That I loved you always, and my love was so big, it lives still after you're gone. I would like to tell you that I'd do it differently. That if I had one more day, I'd do everything right. But I know that isn't true. I'd make all the same mistakes. That is, except one. I wouldn't say goodbye.

Best Friend
Denny Crane: What I give to you, what I share, I do with no one else. I like to think what you give to me, you do with nobody else. Now that may sound silly to you, but here's what I think is silly: the idea that jealousy or fidelity is reserved for romance.
Alan Shore: Gosh, what I get from you, Denny... People walk around today calling everyone their best friend. The term doesn't have any real meaning anymore. Mere acquaintances are lavished with hugs and kisses upon a second or at most third meeting. Birthday cards get passed around offices so everybody can scribble a snippet of sentimentality for a colleague they've barely met. And everyone just loves everyone. As a result, when you tell somebody you love them today, it isn't much heard. I love you, Denny. You are my best friend. I can't imagine going through life without you...as my best friend. [Pause] I'm not going to kiss you, however.
