“The first lesson we learn is that our parents’ love is conditional and that failure to perform means that they can take all that love away.”
― Meg Shaffer, The Wishing Game

“That's what love is, Ben. Love is sacrifice. I got this tattoo the day I felt that kind of love for your father. And I chose it because if I had to describe love that day, I would say it felt like my two favourite things, amplified and thrown together. Like my favourite poetic line mixed into the lyrics of my favourite song. You'll know, Ben. When you're willing to give up the things that mean the most to you just to see someone else happy, that's real love”
― Colleen Hoover, November 9

“When I say you just know, it’s because you will. You won’t question it. You don’t wonder if what you feel is actually love, because when it is, you’ll be absolutely terrified that you’re in it. And when that happens, your priorities will change. You won’t think about yourself and your own happiness. You’ll only think about that person, and how you would do anything to see them happy. Even if it meant walking away from them and sacrificing your own happiness for theirs.”
― Colleen Hoover, November 9

“An impossibility is just a possibility you don’t understand yet”
― Matt Haig, A Boy Called Christmas
