The Mountain Between Us
Charles Martin
Top 10 Best Quotes
“Once a heart breaks…it doesn’t just grow back. It’s not a lizard’s tail. It’s more like a huge stained glass that shattered into a million pieces, and it’s not going back together. Least not the way it was. You can mush it all into one piece, but that doesn’t make it a window. That makes it a pile of broken colored glass. Shattered hearts don’t mend and they don’t heal. They just don’t work that way.”
“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but if you want to hurt someone...way down deep, use words.”
“the mountain between us is one i cannot climb .”
“Forgiveness is a tough thing. Both in the offering…and the accepting.”

Like two rivers running together. All that water becoming the same water. Mine did that.”
“this…living with a broken heart is living half dead, and that doesn’t mean you’re half alive. It means you’re half dead. And…that’s no way to live.”

Open doors, hold your hand, make your coffee, rub lotion on the cracks of your feet, put you up on a pedestal where you belong. Is he marrying your face and your bottle-blond hair, or will he love you when you look like whoever you’re going to look like in fifty years?”
