Sometimes Quote by Catie Cortese
“Sometimes, the girl with the prettiest eyes, has shed the most tears. Sometimes, the girl with the prettiest smile, has pasted it on for so long. Sometimes, the happiest girl, has been hurt the most times. Sometimes, the girl who runs away, has been hurt more than once. Sometimes, you have to see through people, to actually know people. It's easy to hide behind smiles and laughs, but the crash comes sooner or later.”
