“We’re not meant to be alone. We’re made with holes inside our souls. The only way to survive is to fill them.”
― Ella James, Sloth

“I sometimes wish I could just forget it all, but I can’t. I won’t. Because I don’t want to ever want to forget you. And I welcome this pain because it reminds me that you were real.”
― T.M. Frazier, King & Tyrant

“The hearts I make are shattered, but whole. They’re kaleidoscopes that beam under the sun. They signify hope in love when you’ve lost it because, like love, you can look at a kaleidoscope a thousand different ways and find something new every time. Shattered or not, if you look carefully enough, you’ll find something beautiful in them, and all beautiful things are a little broken.”
― Claire Contreras, Kaleidoscope Hearts

“Love. It was the only kind of torture I wasn’t familiar with.”
― T.M. Frazier, Lawless
