“I’m sorry, Murph.”

         "Murph, I wanna talk to you 'bout          Jason." Pause, correct. "About Dr Mann."

          “Forever? You promise. Promise me.”

               "I promise you. I promise -- you know how I told                you about stars? How even after a star dies, their                light carries on, for billions of years? For us, that's                forever. It's like that."

"You know that I love you, right Dad? No matter what."

                 "                    I love you too, Murph. Forever."

"Do you love me more than Tom? It's okay. You can admit it."

              a father's raised eyebrows, disapproving.      he can see              where she would get that idea.   he's sure even tom has               thought it sometimes,    that he's not the favoured child.               the   honest   truth  is   just   that   cooper   could   never               connect as well to him. tom was grounded.       he never               looked skywards the way cooper did.     he felt at home               on the earth. cooper could never relate to that. he could               only try to  encourage  his  son  to  do  what he  wanted.               and he tried.       he wanted more for tom, but farming --               farming was what he was okay with. 

                              "I love you both more than I have half a mind                               what to do with. You're my kids.      So I play                               favourites,"      an admission that he hates to                               make because he knows it's wrong,  "but it's                               equal love. Okay?   I know I don't always -- I                              know I never expressed that right or enough,                              but I love you both.  It's just that you and me                              have the same kinda brain, Murph."

'be intimate with me.'

nonsexual intimacy | not accepting | 20: sleeping in the same bed

Usually, when she can't sleep in her own room, Cooper puts her in with Tom; there's room in there for her, a space on the floor where  she  can comfortably  nest.  Tonight  is  different:  the  storms  are  battering  the house too loud for Murph to sleep, so Cooper's propped up against theheadboard, Murphy tucked under  his  arm,  one  of  his  textbooks  still open in her lap although she's finally fallen asleep.

Cooper  can  feel  his  eyes  drifting  himself;  he  takes  the  book  from Murph's lap, closes it as quiet as he can with  one  hand,  and  carefully places it beyond her, on the bedside table. He could carry  her  back  toher  room  now  but  he  suspects  there's  loose  boarding  outside  her window which is causing the difficulty; he could put her in  Tom's  room,but...

Well. It all seems like a lot of effort when he could just do this: very gingerly he settles down, trying his hardest not to disturb her as he goes horizontal, letting her keep laying on his arm.  And  he  sleeps,  her small warmth a constant next to him.
