Have you ever seen a human heart? It looks like a fist, wrapped in blood.

Larry in Closer, played by the brilliant Clive Owen in response to Dan: “You think love is simple. You think the heart is like a diagram.” (via michelle658) (via mills) (via therandomnessofyes) (via soupsoup) (via unicornology)

I absolutely loved this line- delivered with perfection by Señor Clive in the movie.

I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.

If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life.

Why can we remember the tiniest detail that has happened to us, and not remember how many times we have told it to the same person.

François de la Rochefoucauld (via simko) (via robot-heart)

This irritates me when people can’t remember conversations we’ve had…or worse, don’t care that I’ve heard it before- and just like the sound of their own voice telling their story.

Don’t you bully me with your politeness! Love is hard to believe, ask any lover. Life is hard to believe, ask any scientist. God is hard to believe, ask any believer. What is your problem with hard to believe?
