I believe every...man remembers the girl he thinks he should have married. She reappears to him in his lonely moments, or he sees her in the face of a young girl in the park, buying a snowball under an oak tree by the baseball diamond.

When a man thinks, there is a spot of fire alive in his mind - and it's roper that he should have the burning point of a cigarette as his one expression. Ayn Rand
Mae West quote: "His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork."
His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork. Mae West
It’s not just other people we need to forgive. We also need to forgive ourselves. For all the things we didn’t do. All the things we should have done. Mitch Albom
Al Franken quote: "Today I will masterbate! Okay, that was a mistake. I should..."

I touched the small sacred images. I shook my head and bit my lip, as if to say, How awful that he should have stolen these! But I also found it very funny. And further proof that God had no power over me. Anne Rice
Romance novels are birthday cake and life is often peanut butter and jelly. I think everyone should have lots of delicious romance novels lying around for those times when the peanut butter of life gets stuck to the roof of your mouth. Janet Evanovich
Steig Larsson quote: "I am what I am,' Salander said 'I ran away from everything..."
I am what I am,' Salander said 'I ran away from everything and everybody. I should have said goodbye. Steig Larsson
I asked for so little!” she kept saying, as though her diminished demands alone should have protected her against any disappointments. But I think she was mistaken; she had actually asked for a lot. She had dared to ask for happiness, and she had dared to expect that happiness out of her marriage. You can’t possibly ask for more than that. Elizabeth Gilbert
