1 " ... if you limited who you could love to people who weren’t fucked up, you’d never love anyone. "
― J.A. Rock , Take the Long Way Home
2 " He never quite comes back all the way, I don’t think—lost there in his head for the rest of the evening. He’s wonderfully quiet, and lonely. Like someone shut up in a castle. But he lets me in. Me and the trouble I am. I think I’ll just appreciate that. "
3 " Maybe falling in love isn't about someone wrapping his arm around you and shooting the bad guys while shielding you and then promising he'll always be around to do that. Maybe it's just about finding the right person for a certain time in your life. Maybe I do love him because he was kind to me, because he gave me a place to belong. Because he kidnapped me. And maybe one day, he'll let me go. Or I’ll let him go.It doesn't mean we didn't love each other. It doesn't mean he didn't give me a betterness that will last my whole life. It just means things shift quietly.I decide it's okay for me to be in love with him right now. I don't have to tell him about it. I just have to show him. "
