Quotations
Suffering
To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
-Oscar Wilde
It's easy to look at people and make quick judgements about them, their present and their pasts, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides.

And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.
-Sherrilyn Kenyon
"Acheron"
