Probably one of my favourite quotes ever. I loved the movie but still need to read the book. Is it any good?
I saw the film recently and I just had to quote it. It’s such a powerful thought. My sister bought and read the book having heard that quote so I should definitely borrow her copy.
You must let me know what you thought. I heard it is nothing like the movie at all though.
Wonderful quote and unfortunately for some people is the ugly truth…
Very true 😦
What a poignant statement that is. Loved it when I heard it: in he movie and still love it. (Sorry, haven’t read the book)
The author himself adapted the book for the film and directed it. Are there any other quotes about love you really like?
Very true words.
One of the best about love I can think of 🙂
I love this quote. It can be devastatingly true at times though !
Very true. The best writers don’t hide from things that can make us uncomfortable and instead challenge us to look at ourselves differently.
