"A man who would not love his father's grave is worse than a wild animal."

"People love pretty much the same things best. A writer looking for subject inquires not after what he loves best, but after what he alone loves at all."

"What is more painful: Unable to get the Love of your life or being Indifference to the One who loves you the most?"

"True love begins when you accept yourself in your totality. Then, and only then, can you completely love another."

Amber Hurdle

"Some of us have deeper feelings for one over another. It can't be helped. It's chemistry. It's inherent. You can't make yourself love someone you don't and you can't make yourself stop loving someone you do."

Amber Hurdle

"I am convinced that love is the most durable power in the world. It is not an expression of impractical idealism, but of practical realism. Far from being the pious injunction of a Utopian dreamer, love is an absolute necessity for the survival of our civilization. To return hate for hate does nothing but intensify the existence of evil in the universe. Someone must have sense enough and morality enough to cut off the chain of hate and evil, and this can only be done through love."

"Soul mate romance dissolves the superficial and touches your deepest heart with the delightful power of love."

Quote_1.png
Amber Hurdle

"I am slowly coming to understand with all my heart as well as my head that love is not a feeling. It is a person."

Quote_1.png
Amber Hurdle

"I stood beside the U-Haul, and I just watched her. I stared at her while she looked on with the saddest look in her eyes. I wanted to know what she was thinking about, what was going on in her head. What had mad her so sad? I wanted to hug her so bad. When she finally got out of the U-Haul and I introduced myself to her, it took all I had to let go of her hand. I wanted to hold on to it forever. I wanted to let her know that she wasn't alone. Whatever burden it was that she was carrying around, I wanted to carry it for her. I wish I could, Lake. I wish I could take it all away. Unfortunately, that's not how it works. It doesn't just go away."
