I plant roots so deeply in the people I love that I always lose a piece of myself when they go.

Listen to me, your body is not a temple. Temples can be destroyed and desecrated. Your body is a forest — thick canopies of maple trees and sweet scented wildflowers sprouting in the underwood. You will grow back, over and over, no matter how badly you are devastated.

Beau Taplin, Temples

It was a privilege to love you, and it was a privilege to let you go. Both helped shape me into the person I have become.

One day, whether you are 14, 28 or 65, you will stumble upon someone who will start a fire in you that cannot die. However, the saddest, most awful truth you will ever come to find - is they are not always with whom we spend our lives.

It’s sad isn’t it? I once thought worlds of you and now you’re just another lesson.

You don’t know distance until you’ve shared your bed with someone who’s falling out of love with you.

We're all so desperate to be understood, we forget to be understanding.

Take care of your loved ones, particularly when they are doing everything in their power to push you away. A broken heart, like a wounded beast, will often lash out at those it is nearest, but that does not mean they don’t need you.
