Words worth keeping

Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity.

Any fool can be happy. It takes a man with real heart to make beauty out of the stuff that makes us weep.

But a mermaid has no tears, and therefore she suffers so much more.

They say when you are missing someone that they are probably feeling the same, but I don't think it's possible for you to miss me as much as I'm missing you right now

The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.

Some old wounds never truly heal, and bleed again at the slightest word.

Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever.

It has been said, 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.

What is hell? I maintain that it is the suffering of being unable to love.

Why do people have to be this lonely? What's the point of it all? Millions of people in this world, all of them yearning, looking to others to satisfy them, yet isolating themselves. Why? Was the earth put here just to nourish human loneliness?

Nobody can hurt me without my permission.

If pain must come, may it come quickly. Because I have a life to live, and I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him.

The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. It's the loneliness of it. Memories need to be shared.

There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.

What you must understand about me is that I’m a deeply unhappy person.
