“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”
Neil Gaiman
“I cry because I hate him; I cry more because I love him.”

“The love that lasts the longest is the love that is never returned.”
William Somerset Maugham
“The human heart knows thing the eyes cant see, and feels the things the mind cant understand.. but if love is just a word, then why does it hurt so much when you find it is not there???”
vanessa schiffer
“The greater your capacity to love, the greater your capacity to feel the pain.”
Jennifer Aniston
“Why should I waste my sanity on love when there is potential in getting hurt? The only people that know how to truly love a woman are God, Shakespeare, Ben and Jerry.”
“Don't blame God for the hurt someone's inflicted upon you; Remember that God gave us freedom to decide. They chose to hurt you, not God.”
“Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching.”
Satchel Paige
