“What’s the different? You make them with broken pieces.”
… “The difference is that it’s already broken, but I use the pieces to rebuilt it. The difference is that the heart has a second chance, and maybe it’ll get broken again, but it’s already shattered, so maybe the fall won’t be as bad.”
― Claire Contreras, Kaleidoscope Hearts

“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

“Broken people give broken love. And we are all a little broken. You just have to forgive and sew up the wounds love delivers, and move on.”
― Tarryn Fisher, Thief

“Sometimes two people need to fall apart to realize how much they need to fall back together."

She looks me in the eyes. "Never.”
― Colleen Hoover, This Girl
