“I think you can love a person too much.
You put someone up on a pedestal, and all of a sudden, from that perspective, you notice what's wrong - a hair out of place, a run in a stocking, a broken bone.

You don't even realize what you look like, how far you've deteriorated, because you only have eyes for someone else.”
