“Memories are immortal. They’re deathless and precise. They have the power of giving you joy and perspective in hard times. Or, they can strangle you. Define you in a way that’s based more in other people’s tucked-up perceptions than truth.”

“I wonder if humans are the only living creatures that ever feel hollow inside. I don’t understand how my body can be full of everything bodies are full of—bones and muscles and blood and organs—yet my chest sometimes feels vacant, as if someone could scream into my mouth and it would echo inside of me.”
― Colleen Hoover, Regretting You

“Without my brother, I would not be. We fight, argue—we even argue about agreeing on things—but there is a bond and unconditional love that very few people ever experience in their lifetime.

― Alex Van Halen, Brothers: An Intimate Account of Brotherhood and Rock Music

“Sometimes you have to be okay with other people not being okay with you. And you have to be okay with you not being okay too.”
