#heartbreak

"The emotion that can break your heart is sometimes the very one that heals it..."

"He looked at me intently, from what seemed behind the veil of a grave experience. Then slowly and prophetically, he said the scariest thing I'd ever heard: "Because the answer to a heartfelt question, Jack, will always break your heart."

"Ah, if everyone was as sensitive as you! There's no girl who hasn't gone through that. And it's all so unimportant!"

"Thoughts are as simple as the process…a message from the soul; conveyed through the heart; received in the mind"

"So it’s true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love."

"That’s life for you. All the happiness you gather to yourself, it will sweep away like it’s nothing. If you ask me I don’t think there are any such things as curses. I think there is only life. That’s enough."

"Did I really want to stay on this road longer, knowing it was only going to end in devastation?"

"She had loved him for such a long time, she thought. How was it that she did now know him at all?"

"You can’t turn love on and off like a light switch, no matter how hard you try. All you can do is wall it off, one brick at a time, until you’ve created an impenetrable fortress around your emotions. And once that fortress is built, you camouflage it so well that even you can’t see it anymore."

"Love, it never dies. It never goes away, it never fades, so long as you hang on to it. Love can make you immortal"

"One of the most difficult things he'd ever done was turn away and leave her standing in the shadows."

"Two words. Three vowels. Four constenants. Seven letters. It can either cut you open to the core and leave you in ungodly pain or it can free your soul and lift a tremendous weight off you shoulders. The phrase is: It's over."

"Was it hard?"I ask.Letting go?"Not as hard as holding on to something that wasn't real."

"When we are in love, we are convinced nobody else will do. But as time goes, others do do, and often do do, much much better."

"Thought I couldn't live without youIt's gonna hurt when it heals tooEven though I really love youI'm gonna smile cause I deserve toQuickly I'm learning to love againAll I know is I'mma be ok"

"It is strange how often a heart must be broken Before the years can make it wise."

"I know my heart will never be the sameBut I'm telling myself I'll be okay"

"The most difficult aspect of moving on is accepting that the other person already did."

"I mean, at the end of the day, what the hell does it matter who I end up with if it can't be you?"

"Sometimes it takes a heartbreak to shake us awake & help us see we are worth so much more than we're settling for."
