“You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.”
― William Faulkner

“It's not the loving that hurts this girl; it's the understanding of it for what it is, that it will never be returned in the same way, that threatens to destroy her. But to unload the words - "I love you" - on an innocent party who didn't ask for it, to reach across the dark space and touch him - it's like the world she knows could end if she dared speak these words, dared make such a move.”
― Rachel Cohn, You Know Where to Find Me

“He is no longer mine to lose, but the grief is there, a gnawing sense of disbelief.”
― Lauren Oliver, Requiem

“My dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you.
Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness.
Let it kill you and let it devour your remains.
For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
~ Falsely yours”
― Kinky Friedman
