What I want

“I don’t want to hurt you. But I’ll tell you what I do want… I want someone who will be monogamous and nice to his mother. And I want someone who likes musicals, but knows to just shut his mouth when I’m watching Lost. And I want someone who thinks being really into cars is lame, and strip clubs are gross. I want someone who will actually empty the dishwasher instead of just taking out forks as needed, like I do. I want someone with clean hands and feet, and beefy forearms, like a damn Disney prince. And I want him to genuinely like me, even when I’m old. And that’s what I want.”

Changes and hurt to grow

“Change: We don’t like it, we fear it, but we can’t stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. And it hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn’t is lying. But here’s the truth: The more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes… Oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change… is everything.”

This isn’t gonna hurt so much

“You need to know that eventually, this isn’t gonna hurt so much. And the good times are just gonna get easier to remember, and you’re gonna end up being a stronger person because of all of the stuff that you’ve been through. I promise, really. Oh, by the way, I hated your wife, she was a total bitch. Needed to be said.”

How you survive

“That’s how you stay alive. When it hurts so much you can’t breathe, that’s how you survive.”

That invasion of personal space

“At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, it’s usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we’ve chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them. The people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close. But sometimes, that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need.”

When there is only darkness

“You lead when others would only follow. You see light, when there is only darkness. I trust you. I trust you among all others.”

William Hurt como Edward Walker en The Village

Truth about the truth

“But here’s the truth about the truth: It hurts. So we lie.”

I’m gonna

“…I’m gonna show you things you might have missed
I’m gonna kiss the parts that you have lost
It’s gonna cost you but you might hurt less
This funny thing we’ve got is never gonna stop…”

Don’t have time to fall apart

“If I told you that my heart hurt so much sometimes, I want to rip it from my chest with my own little hands… I would fall apart. And I don’t have time to fall apart. And not that I’m not happy to see you…I am. But I wish that you would go home so the choice to talk and fall apart would go away.”

Chandra Wilson como Miranda Bailey en Grey’s Anatomy (4×13)

Get hurt

“In life, only one thing is certain, apart from death and taxes: No matter how hard you try, no matter how good your intentions, you are going to make mistakes. You are going to hurt people. You are going to get hurt.”
