"You sought to change the world, to make things different... in your opinion better? Why do you not wish to allow your daughter to change? Isn't it every /good/ parents job to wish to see their children become something more, something better than they had been? You are rare... you succeeded. Molly has her own choices now, she is her own person. And she is a better person than you are. Even if you could control her... then it would be your hand on the trigger, not hers. It would be your doing, not hers. You have already done your work... and produced a wonderful person who will be greater by far than the sum of the parts who made her."

"Molly, you're your own person. There is the potential to be anything... including them. Trying to fight that it is possible is a losing battle... but it still comes down to a choice. A choice you can make every morning when you wake... like when you awaken from this dream, and find your friends are fine, and waiting for you. A choice as defined as which hat you want to wear today."
