Love is awful. It’s painful. Frightening. It makes you doubt yourself, judge yourself, distance yourself from the other people in your life. Makes you selfish, makes you creepy, makes you obsessed with your hair. It takes strength to know what’s right. And love isn’t something that weak people do. Being a romantic takes a hell of a lot of hope. I think what they mean is, when you find somebody that you love, it feels like hope. The Priest
I think you know how to love better than any of us. It’s why you find it so painful. Dad
Why believe in something awful when you can believe in something wonderful? The Priest
With all the love I have for her. I don’t know where to put it now. Fleabag
