I’ve been taught that love is beautiful and kind, but it isn’t like that at all. It is beautiful, but it’s a terrible beauty, a ruthless one, and you fall—you fall, and the thing is you want to. You don’t care what’s coming, you just want who your heart beats for.

Elizabeth Scott, The Unwritten Rule (via books-n-quotes)

“Don’t call it a comeback; I’ve been here for years.”
