Inspirational Quote by Thomas Christopher Greene

“And she thinks perhaps that is what love is: letting someone else see that part of you that shatters like glass...They will grow old together, broken together, and as long as they both don't completely shatter at the same time, they might find a way to pick each other off the ground.” quote by Thomas Christopher Greene
