It Hurts Quotes (page 23)
There comes a point in time where you just love someone. Not because they're good, or bad, or anything really. You just love them. It doesn't mean you'll be together forever.

All sorts of other things people want, but wanting to have no rich and poor any more isn't real wanting; it is just a matter of pious sentiment. And so...
