“Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure.”
― Stephen King, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

“Hearts are made to be broken.”
― Oscar Wilde, De Profundis

“I think maybe it’s the things we don’t want to talk about that are the things people most want to hear.”
― Julie Murphy, Dumplin'

“and it ought to make us feel ashamed when we talk like we know what we're talking about when we talk about love.”
― Raymond Carver, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love
