You can’t walk away from someone you love, leave them drowning in your desertion. If love has no more meaning than that, you can keep it. I don’t want it now or ever again. Don’t want to hear the word or wear its scars.

Whatever has happened in someone's past, the future is theirs to shape. The first step is to find a way out.

It's just so hard to feel good, you know?" I do know. And more than that, it's just so incredibly hard to feel. (54)

...what good would it do to shutter your windows, never dream of rainbows or find hope in promises? Why choose to walk away rather than hold your ground and fight for love?

Despite whoever created it, it's my world, & the only one I've got. Might as well make the best of it, right? Might as well have a little fun while I'm here. Or a lot of fun. Might be dead tomorrow.

When all else fails, dream bigger.

back turned, you don't have to look at what you've left behind. And the first person who turned their back on you can't watch you break down and cry.
