“No matter how many people care about you, she thought, if you can't be open with them about who you truly are, you're still alone.”

“Love can come when you're already who you are, when you're filled with you. Not when you look to someone else to fill the empty space.”

“You're so afraid of being hurt that you attack first. Only those who really care about you will weather the assault of your verbal attacks and stay. The rest will fall away.”
