“I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at
school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you
how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor.
They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any
longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone
else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying.
They don't teach you anything worth knowing.”

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart
will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping
it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it
carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all
entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your
selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it
will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable,
impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will
never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you
to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes,
hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote
poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a
part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change
him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile
when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when
he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect
guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
― Bob Marley

boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is
not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight
in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.”

sight. But I was beginning to believe that a very few times in your

for you. Not because he was perfect, or because you were, but because
your combined flaws were arranged in a way that allowed two separate
beings to hinge together.”
