“Sometimes love means letting go when you want to hold on tighter.”
― Melissa Marr, Ink Exchange

“The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then we do not love them: we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them”
― Thomas Merton, No Man Is an Island

“The greater the love, the greater the tragedy when it's over.”
― Nicholas Sparks, Nights in Rodanthe

“I used to think the worst thing in life is to end up all alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel all alone.”
― Robin Williams
