“to be with a man who hasn’t tried every line, who hasn’t broken up with a woman every which way you can break up with them, is kind of bad ,and about this thingy relationships are like glass. Sometimes it’s better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together”

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”
C.S. Lewis
“Work like you don't need the money, love like your heart has never been broken, and dance like no one is watching”

“The heart is the only broken instrument that works.”

“A broken heart never fully mends, it only endures.”

“There is a thing, like a bird, weak and fluttering within my chest, i cradle it and care for it as anyone should an injured thing, yet, i silently pray for it's death.”
Gabriel Swann
“after a break-up people always claim that things will get better, and in fact they do... but not because we in fact ARE better but that the pain, has beaten every last ounce of feeling from us. after we are wasted away, because food and drink seems to be like sand being choked down, and sleep is no comfort because you know you'll dream of them, and have to wake with knowing they'll not be there. after all this is accepted, we are what people claim is 'better'”
