Men in Trees Quotes
Marin Frist: So I guess there's no easy way to move on from a relationship. You can't flip a switch and suddenly be over it, because the road really is full of hidden potholes. You can try staying in the relationship, you can stay home and dream of the unobtainable one, but in the end it just takes time, and some Alaskan tap water, and the help of a town full of good men. Thanks for sleeping with me Elmo.
