Andrea Gibson Quotes About Heart

Quotes about: Heart

• Sometimes the break in your heart is like the hole in the flute. Sometimes it’s the place where the music comes through.

  Andrea Gibson

  Love, Music, Broken Heart

• If you were to press your heart close up against somebody else’s heart eventually your hearts will start beating at the same time. And two little babies in an incubator, their hearts will beat at the same time. Love that. So if you have somebody in your life that is prone to anxiety, like myself, and if you happen to be a calm person, you could come up and hug me heart to heart and my heart hopefully would slow to yours. And I just love that idea. Or maybe yours would speed up to mine. But either way, we’ll be there together.

  Writing, Heart, Remember You

• I’m never gonna wait that extra twenty minutes to text you back, and I’m never gonna play hard to get when I know your life has been hard enough already. When we all know everyone’s life has been hard enough already it’s hard to watch the game we make of love, like everyone’s playing checkers with their scars, saying checkmate whenever they get out without a broken heart. Just to be clear I don’t want to get out without a broken heart. I intend to leave this life so shattered there’s gonna have to be a thousand separate heavens for all of my flying parts.

• Don't google your name. Ever.
  Don't “search” for yourself
  on anything that glows in the dark.
  Don't let your beauty
  be something anyone can turn off.
  Don't edit your ugly out of your bio.
  Let your light come from the fire.
  Let your pain be the spark,
  but not the timber.
  Remember, you didn't come here
  to write your heart out.
  You came to write it in.
