“And what is more dramatic, really, than heartbreak?”
“And that was the greatest heartbreak of all- no matter how spectacular we want our children to be, no matter how perfect we pretend they are, they are bound to disappoint. As it turns out, kids are more like us than we think: damaged, through and through.”
“Disappointment and heartbreak are always opportunities for someone or something bigger and better to come in for you.”
“It would only lead to disappointment, even heartbreak, and her heart was too precious for me to let that happen.”
“Nothing disappoints an atheist more than meeting God.”
