“Ik denk: ik wil begrijpen wat de liefde is, onthouden dat dat alles is, of toch bijna. Ik wil redden wat er te redden valt, mijzelf bijvoorbeeld, ik wil weten wat ik waard ben, kiezen voor wat klopt en goed is, geloven dat dat mag. Ik denk: dat is het, ik wil durven, eindelijk. Ja.”
― Griet Op de Beeck, Kom hier dat ik u kus

“But better to get hurt by the truth than comforted with a lie.”
― Khaled Hosseini

“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
― Bob Marley

“Love is a rebellious bird,
that nobody can tame,
and you call him quite in vain,
if it suits him not to come.”
― Ludovic Halévy
