Gregory David Roberts Quote

Такой бывает любовь. … Твое сердце становится похожим на перегруженную спасательную шлюпку. Чтобы не утонуть, ты выбрасываешь за борт свою гордость и самоуважение, свою независимость. А спустя какое-то время ты начинаешь выбрасывать людей — своих друзей и всех прочих, кого знал годами. Но и это не спасает. Шлюпка погружается все глубже, и ты знаешь, что скоро она утонет и ты вместе с ней.
