Laurie Lee Quotes

Alice: It's the only way to leave. "I don't love you anymore. Goodbye." Dan: Supposing you do still love them? Alice: You don't leave.

He always did the leaving. But not this time. She kept walking, and did not look back.

You who have inhabited me in the deepest and most broken place, are going, going

It hurts when it don't last, no easy way saying bye. So I'mma spread my wings and head for the sky.

If you loved someone, really loved them, would you let them go?

Letting go of someone we love is the hardest thing we will ever do. Some people never surrender to love for the fear of being hurt. But to not have loved, to not have felt the immense joy it brings, would have been a far worse kind of death.

In love, you pay as you leave.

I lost you once, I think I can do it again.

No one teaches you how to do this. How do you let go of someone who you love so much?

In that last dance of chances I shall partner you no more. I shall watch another turn you As you move across the floor. In that last dance of chances When I bid your life goodbye I will hope she treats you kindly. I will hope you learn to fly. In that last dance of chances When I know you'll not be mine I will let you go with longing And the hope that you'll be fine. In that last dance of chances We shall know each other's minds. We shall part with our regrets When the tie no longer binds.

People change, no use getting sentimental about it. Move on, find someone else.

If you leave, we lose and our pasts win.

For we lose not only by death, but also by leaving and being left, by changing and letting go and moving on.

You cry tears when a man leaves you at any age - it doesn't matter whether you are 20 or 60.

I'm great at leaving. I am less talented at getting left, though I should be better, given how much it's happened.

A lot of the songs are based on my previous relationship. It didn't work out. I lost him, and it ruined me. I had to learn to get back on my feet. I used that heartbreak to create something really beautiful.

If you love something, set it free. If it was meant to be, it will come back to you. But this, of course, was bullshit. If you loved something and let it go...it would (hello!) find something else to love.

It was strange, really. A couple months ago, I had thought I couldn’t live without him. Apparently I could.

Everything we love goes. So to be able to grieve that loss, to let go, to have that grief be absolutely full, is the only way to have our heart be full and open.

Our love is strong. Why carry on without me?

I’ve lost so many people. Some I left on purpose and never looked back. Some were taken from me, and I never said good-bye.

I hate you for all the years I 'll have to live without you. How can a heart hurt this much and still go on beating? How can I feel this bad without dying from it? I 've bruised my knees with praying to have you back. None of my prayers have been answered. I tried to send them up to heaven but they 're trapped here on earth, like bobwhites beneath the snow. I try to sleep and it's like I 'm suffocating. Where have you gone? Once you said that if I wasn't with you, it wouldn't be heaven. I can't let go of you. Come back and haunt me. Come back.

No one teaches you how to walk away from someone who you know loves you. NO one teaches you how to say good-bye.

You shall leave everything you love.

No need to be sentimental to mourn the loss of Paradise.
