I Know

“I know I'm not going to be in your head all the time. 

But once you know me, I'll be forever in your heart. ”

the better to provide an alibi for all the despair 

we are going to feel anyway.”

My Love Is Pizza Shaped

“My love is pizza-shaped. 

Won’t you have a slice? 

It’s circular, so there’s enough to go around.”

~ Dora J. Arod, Love quotes for the ages. And the ageless sages.

I Have To Go

“I have to go. 

I have a finite amount of life left 

and I don't want to spend it arguing with you.”

~ Jennifer Armintrout, Ashes to Ashes

Trust And Faith

“Trust and faith bring joy to life 

and help relationships grow to their maximum potential.”

~Joyce Meyer, Battlefield of the Mind: 

Winning the Battle in Your Mind

Don't Answer The Door

he might not think you're joking.”

Annabeth Realized

“Annabeth realized that if six of them 

went on these two quests, 

it would leave Percy alone 

on the ship with Coach Hedge, 

which was maybe not a situation 

a caring girlfriend should put him in. 

Nor was she eager to let Percy 

out of her sight again—

not after they’d been apart 

for so many months.”

~ Rick Riordan, The Mark of Athena

Having A Sister Or A Friend

“Having a sister or a friend 

is like sitting at night in a lighted house. 

Those outside can watch you if they want, 

but you need not see them. 

You simply say, 

"Here are the perimeters of our attention. 

If you prowl around under the windows

 till the crickets go silent, 

we will pull the shades. 

If you wish us to suffer your envious curiosity, 

you must permit us not to notice it." 

Anyone with one solid human bond is that smug, 

and it is the smugness as much as the comfort and safety 

that lonely people covet and admire.”

~ Marilynne Robinson, Housekeeping

The Truth

“The truth is I didn’t need therapy; 

I just needed to feel loved 

and know that someone out there craved my attention.”

~ Robert M. Drake

Love Has No Limitations

“Love has no limitations. 

It cannot be measured. 

It has no boundaries. 

Although many have tried, 

love is indefinable.”

~ Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

She

“She is delightfully chaotic; 

a beautiful mess. 

Loving her is a splendid adventure.”

~ Steve Maraboli

Some Of The Biggest Challenges

“Some of the biggest challenges in relationships 

come from the fact that most people enter a relationship 

in order to get something: 

they're trying to find someone who's going to make them feel good. 

In reality, the only way a relationship will last 

is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, 

and not a place that you go to take. ”

~ Anthony Robbins
