“God knows we’re all drawn to what’s beautiful and broken.”

“God knows we’re all drawn toward what’s beautiful and broken; I have been, but some people cannot be fixed. Or if they can be, it’s only by love and sacrifice so great it destroys the giver.”

“There are some people—people the universe seems to have singled out for special destinies. Special favors and special torments. God knows we're all drawn toward what's beautiful and broken; I have been, but some people cannot be fixed. Or if they can be; its only by love and sacrifice so great that it destroys the giver.”

“What’s your name, then?”Tessa looked at him in disbelief. “What’s my name?”“Don’t you know it?”

“Or maybe it's just that beautiful things are so easily broken by the world.”

“I don't know why I ever helped you.""You like broken things.”

“You haven't broken his heart yet, have you?""No," Tessa said. Just torn my own in two. "I haven't broken his heart at all.”
