“Things break all the time.Day breaks, waves break, voices break.Promises break.Hearts break.”

“Things break all the time. Glass and dishes and fingernails. Cars and contracts and potato chips. You can break a record, a horse, a dollar. You can break the ice. There are coffee breaks and lunch breaks and prison breaks. Day breaks, waves break, voices break. Chains can be broken. So can silence, and fever... promises break. Hearts break.”

“Things that break - be they bones, hearts, or promises - can be put back together but will never really be whole.”

“True love can break the most powerful curse”

“You're unwilling to go out on a limb because it just might break underneath you.”

“Suddenly this is all too hard. I am tired of putting up walls. I want someone with the strength - and the honesty - to break them down.”

“Until this moment, I had not realized that someone could break your heart twice, along the very same fault lines.”
