Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love. - Neil Gaiman

Love is like grass. If you fall on it, it may leave a stain & some temporary pain. But you'll get over the pain, it will eventually stop hurting.

And with time it will begin to fade, but it will always be there, a permanent reminder that you, too, once fell. - Unknown

I'd like to believe in the healing hands of time, but the truth is I really can't say if I'm getting better or just used to the pain. - Tracy Lawrence's "Used to the Pain"

There's magic in a sense of longing. If you take away the magic, you take away the capacity to love. - Christina (Kate Beckinsale) in Haunted

Never underestimate the power of giving a girl flowers. - Unknown

And I miss you in my fingers and valleys inbetween. It's odd how feelings linger for something yet unseen. There's ages between my heart and my mouth. My veins throb with that which I can't spit out. Now I don't need much: just presence in mine and reassurance your ache matches mine. So stay. - Mad at Gravity's "Stay"

How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being? - Oscar Wilde

O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!
It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear-
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear!
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.
The measure done, I'll watch her place of stand
And, touching hers, make blessed my rude hand.
Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight!
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.
- Romeo in Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet
