Alice Hoffman Quotes

We choose those we like; with those we love, we have no say in the matter.

Love is not in our choice but in our fate.

You can't control who you fall in love with.

Most of the things in your life are not in your control - the family you are born into, the parents, and the siblings you have. It is only friendship and love that you create for yourself in this lifetime.

You just don't know who you could fall in love with.
