Break Quote by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes

“Love is the strongest emotion any creature can feel except for hate, but hate can't hurt you. Love, and trust, and friendship, and all the other emotions humans value so much, are the only emotions that can bring pain. Only love can break a heart into so many pieces.” quote by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
