“It’s not the fear of losing them
that scares us,
it’s that we have given them
so many of our pieces
that we fear losing
ourselves
when they are gone”
― Atticus Poetry, Love Her Wild

“Put a girl in
moonlight
and tell only truths
and every man
becomes a poet.”
― Atticus Poetry, Love Her Wild

“I wish I had the talent to paint the way I feel about you, for my words always feel inadequate. I imagine using red for your passion and pale blue for your kindness; forest green to reflect the depth of your empathy and bright yellow for your unflagging optimism. And still I wonder: can even an artist’s palette capture the full range of what you mean to me?”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Longest Ride

“The best way to cheer yourself is to cheer somebody else up.”
― Albert Einstein
