“I think one of the most important things to realize is it's a person that hurt you and not love. Don't mix up the two. Don't allow anyone to taint your views on what love actually is. Because real love isn't pain.”— Kirsten Corley, facebook.com
“Love is a delicate thing that needs to be cosseted and protected. Love is not robust and love is not unyielding. Love can crumble under a few harsh words, or be tossed away with a handful of careless actions. Love isn't a steadfast dog at all; love is more like a pygmy mouse lemur.”— Khaled Hosseini, amazon.com
