"What I want from life, Edie, is to know my life hasn‘t been an utter waste of food, water, and air. That everything I took for granted means something even if I almost threw it all away. That I can do good in the world rather than just have a good time. But most of all, I need to know that there is one person in the world who needs me, whose life is better because I am in it. I want that one person to be you. I love you."
