"- Life is not a book. And it can be over in a second. I was having lunch with my mother at Daley Plaza... and a man was killed right in front of me. He died in my arms. And I thought: «It can't end just like that on Valentine's Day.» I thought about all the people who love him, waiting at home... who will never see him again. And then I thought: «What if there is no one? What if you live your whole life and no one is waiting?»"
