This powerful quote from the movie "Tuck Everlasting" really brings it home for me.

Not to hijack this thread, but how could I forget Tuck Everlasting?! So many wonderful quotes from that book. I’m actually listening to it as an audiobook right now since it’s been a long time since I’ve read it.
They also have a musical adaptation which is much more accurate to the book than the movie is. Many quotes from thebook are used in the show.

I read the book when I was young, but remember the movie better. I will see if I can get that downloaded on Audible. It is very inspiring classic. Love it ❤❤❤

From the Korean Melodrama "When The Weather is Fine", one of the best I have watched so far.

"I know a warm person. When I am next to him, I feel warm like a kettle on top of a stove. To be honest, I didn't even know I was cold. But I realized it when I came back home. That ... I was really cold.."
