It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.

Were staying together he promised. Youre not getting away from me. Never again.

It is possible to be in love with you just because of who you are.

People always fall in love with the most perfect aspects of each others personalities. Who wouldnt Anybody can love the most wonderful parts of another person. But thats not the clever trick. The really clever trick is this Can you accept the flaws Can you look at your partners faults honestly and say I can work around that. I can make something out of it. Because the good stuff is always going to be there and its always going to pretty and sparkly but the crap underneath can ruin you.

I am not an angel I asserted and I will not be one till I die I will be myself. Mr. Rochester you must neither expect nor exact anything celestial of me - for you will not get it any more than I shall get it of you which I do not at all anticipate.

The course of true love never did run smooth.

People like to say love is unconditional but its not and even if it was unconditional its still never free. Theres always an expectation attached. They always want something in return. Like they want you to be happy or whatever and that makes you automatically responsible for their happiness because they wont be happy unless you are ... I just dont want that responsibility.

Thats what people do who love you. They put their arms around you and love you when youre not so lovable.

Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

Thats what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is. Most people love you for who you pretend to be. To keep their love you keep pretending - performing. You get to love your pretence. Its true were locked in an image an act - and the sad thing is people get so used to their image they grow attached to their masks. They love their chains. They forget all about who they really are. And if you try to remind them they hate you for it they feel like youre trying to steal their most precious possession.
