“The kind of ending where someone else sees the best and worst of me and loves me back. We’d be happy together, we’d be sad together, we’d be everything together. And when it’s all over and we’ve reached another ending, my ashes would be scattered over the tree that grows from his body because till death do us part wouldn’t be enough, because I’d need more than one brief eternity with him.”
― Yulin Kuang, How to End a Love Story

― Jessica George, Love by the Book

“You can't fix someone who is determined to stay broken.”
