“We can never fully know the people we love. When we lose them, there will always be more we could have seen, but that's what I'm trying to tell you.”
― Emily Henry, Beach Read

“For a decade, I've known I will never have everything and so all I've wanted is to believe that, someday, again, I'll have enough. The ache won't always be so bad. No ice ever freezes too thick to thaw and no thorns ever grow too dense to be cut away.”

“I was so sick and tired of platitudes. God has a plan. Everything happens for a reason. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. No, it doesn’t, and fuck all of it.”
― Abby Jimenez, Yours Truly

“There is a spot in my foot I can’t feel. I stepped on a piece of glass and the nerves there are dead now. The doctor said they’d grow back, but it’s been years and that place is still numb. That was how my heart had felt for years. Like all the cracks callused over. That enabled me to focus on what mattered. I built a life for me and Libby, a home that no bank or ex-boyfriend could ever take from us. I watched my friends in relationships make compromise after compromise, shrinking into themselves until they were nothing but a piece of a whole, until all their stories came from the past, and their career aspirations, their friends, and their apartments were replaced by our aspirations, our friends, our apartment. Half lives that could be taken from them without any warning.”
