The one thing we can never get enough of is love. And the one thing we never give enough of is love.
---Henry Miller
There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.
---Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey
When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.
---Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain.
---Emily Dickinson
| Victor | If you gave someone your heart and they died, did they take it with them? Did you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled? ---Jodi Picoult, Nineteen Minutes |
| Zach | What would I do without your smart mouth? |
| Skylar | “Life damages us, every one. We can’t escape that damage. But now, I am also learning this: We can be mended. We mend each other.” ---Veronica Roth |
Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.
― Louise Erdrich
