Xiaolu Guo Quotes and Sayings - Page 1

“People always say it's harder to heal a wounded heart than a wounded body. Bullshit. It's exactly the oppositeâ€”a wounded body takes much longer to heal. A wounded heart is nothing but ashes of memories. But the body is everything. The body is blood and veins and cells and nerves. A wounded body is when, after leaving a man youâ€™ve lived with for three years, you curl up on your side of the bed as if thereâ€™s still somebody beside you. That is a wounded body: a body that feels connected to someone who is no longer there.”
