Hurt Quote by Erica Bauermeister

“Somewhere along the line, I'll screw up and hurt you," he said. "Everybody does. But that's not the point." "What's the point?" "The point is if you believe I would never do it on purpose - and if I believe the same of you. That's how you deal with stuff.” quote by Erica Bauermeister
