Daniel: I'm not going anywhere.
Jane: Yeah, well, you're not the one I'm worried about. I'm not crazy, in case you were wondering. I mean yeah, but no, not really. It started off as a joke. But just saying it, I'm dying, finite.

But there are days, if I really let myself buy into it, I can actually see the beauty of how little time we really have. And lately, that only seems to be happening, when I'm with you.
