I Loved You in Another Life by David Arnold

1 highlight

Silence and sadness are not the same things. And I wish more people understood that, is all.

“Cover it, bury it, hide it away
A secret will always find its own way
No matter how long, no matter how far
When the time is right, it'll always rise
And carry it's truth to all men's eyes.”
― Alex Bledsoe, Chapel of Ease

“I used to imagine Better was a place you could get to. A moment when I would look around and see that Everything Was Fine. But that’s not how this works. Being better isn’t a battle you fight and win. Feeling okay is a war, one that lasts your whole life, and the only way to win is to keep on fighting.”
― Sam J. Miller, The Art of Starving

“People just got born into a house with a bunch of randoms and then were expected to love them regardless of personality or commonality or even, you know, decency. It didn’t make sense. Sure, some people got lucky. But a lot of people didn’t.”
― Kerry Kletter, East Coast Girls
