Season 8 Quotes

	Season 8 / Episode 16: - You Take for Granted Mary Alice: [Narrating] We all take the gift of life for granted, if only we could slow things down because before you knew it, the gift is gone.
	Season 8 / Episode 17: - Women and Death Mary Alice: Yes, as much as death takes from us, it also gives. It teaches us what's truly important. Like giving back after a lifetime of taking... going after something we never should've let go of... or looking back on what made us who we are. But sometimes, the lessons learned after a person's death aren't the ones we expected.
