“You can never replicate the feelings of a first love, Jesse. The passion, the elation, the sorrow, the pain. When it’s the first time, everything is so much more magnified. You feel like it’s the end of the world when you’re not together. A second love is more subdued. It’s more careful, more cautious. But it’s still love and when it comes with respect and admiration and friendship, it trumps passion and elation any time.”
― Christine Brae, The Light in the Wound

“Sometimes love isn’t forever. Sometimes it’s just moments in your life that teach you. If it’s the forever after kind of love, it’ll find you again. If it isn’t, don’t let a broken heart break you. Let it make you love harder. Love is a mistake worth making.”
― R.K. Ryals, Hawthorne & Heathcliff

“Life is like a book. Some of the pages you want to rip out and others you want to keep. I’ve been ripping out a lot of pages lately, getting rid of the ugly stuff. The stuff that’s left behind isn’t as bad as I thought it was.”
― R.K. Ryals, Hawthorne & Heathcliff

“Every day you wake up and think, we'll fix things tomorrow.”
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah
