"They say the average human heart beats 2.5 billion times over the course of a lifetime. 2.5 billion heartbeats. And every one of mine belongs to him."

-Julie Johnson, Uncharted

"Quite the opposite actually. I think having hope is one of the most important things you can do. Once you let go of it, despair takes over. Despair will kill you quicker than hope ever could. So if you're going to hold onto something...I'm glad it's that."

-Julie Johnson, Uncharted

"I am a cherry blossom tree hit with the first hints of spring. Something dormant inside me has stirred awake after a long hibernation. Something I’m not sure I even realized lurked there, waiting to be roused, until this breathless instant pinned beneath Beck’s gaze. Now that it’s made its presence known, I’m not sure I can banish it back to slumber. I’m not sure I want to."

-Julie Johnson, Uncharted

"I know how his mind works, how his heart beats. I know the sound of his sighs and the break in his laugh. I know him like the breath in my lungs, the blood in my veins. And so I know… I am not the only one who wonders, in the small hours of the night, whether there is any world outside the one we have built from scratch on this island in which a future for us exists. I know I am not the only one who questions if the salvation we’ve been praying for these days and weeks and months will ultimately be our undoing."

-Julie Johnson, Uncharted
