“I'm the only one who saw your full truth. I still see it. I'm trying to keep holding it tight. But truth can be slippery, hard to look at straight on. It's too open to interpretations and view points. Lies are more solid, sometimes they feel more real.”
― Anica Mrose Rissi, Nobody Knows But You

“It hurt me to see you hurting, and it hurt even more to have you listen and agree, while knowing anything I said was just a bandage--one you would rip right off at the first chance to let him wound you again. It happened every time.”
― Anica Mrose Rissi, Nobody Knows But You
