Ellen Wittlinger Quote: “That’s the great thing about movies, Hitch. The end is the end; everything is resolved one way or the other.

Real life is a whole lot messier. It doesn’t end when things are at a good stopping point.”

Would I have to give them up if I wasn’t a girl anymore? I hoped not. I hoped that changing my gender wouldn’t mean losing my entire past.”
