“There’s no magical healing in this. I won’t wake up tomorrow fixed and joyful. I’ll still hurt and grieve. But moments like this, with Colton? They make it all bearable. He doesn't fix me, doesn't heal me. He just makes life worthwhile. He helps me remember to breathe, shows me how to smile again. He kisses me, and I can forget pain, forget the urges I still have to cut for the pain that erases the emotions.”
― Jasinda Wilder, Falling Into You

“There is an indescribable feeling that comes from being desperately in love with a song.”
― Nina LaCour, Hold Still

“Each person has a literature inside them.”
― Anna Deavere Smith

“I can feel the hurt. There's something good about it. Mostly it makes me stop remembering.”
― Albert Borris, Crash Into Me
