How do you even know I'm someone you'll want to remember? We've only seen each other once before.'( Amber)' Have you ever looked at a painting and known you had something in common with it? Have you ever seen something so beautiful you feel like crying? When I see you, I feel that way. I feel like the deepest part of me understands something vital about you.'( Virgil Daly) Christina Westover
About This Quote

People are constantly on the lookout for someone to remember them. And, when they find someone, they feel like the deepest part of themselves understands them. That is magical. It is not enough to want to remember people, but you have to actually care about what they are doing.

We all want to remember someone, but we do not want to know our future children. We do not want our parents crying when we tell them how much that person has changed our lives. We do not want that person telling us that that person has become an inspiration or a role model for them.

When you see Virgil all you want is for him to be happy and to be happy with you. And, when Virgil tells you he feels like he understands something vital about you, it makes your heart skip a beat and makes you feel so special because he knows more about you than anyone else has ever known before. You can see what Virgil sees in you and it brings tears to your eyes because he sees the most beautiful thing in the whole world in you.
