“Alone in the forest, Katsa sat on a stump and cried. She cried like a person whose heart is broken and wondered how, when two people loved each other, there could be such a broken heart.”
“She'd cried over a broken heart before. She knew what that felt like, and it didn't feel like this. Her heart felt not so much broken as just ... empty. It felt like she was an outline empty in the middle. The outline cried senselessly for the absent middle. The past cried for the present that was nothing.”
“i cried when i saw thosebuildings collapse on themselves like a broken heart.”
“Heaven doesn't ignore cries of a broken heart.”
“Oh," he cried. "A broken heart have you! I have falling arches, flying dandruff, a floating kidney, shattered nerves and a broken heart!”
“Somewhere in all the snow, she could see her broken heart, in two pieces. Each half was glowing, and beating under all that white.”
