As I apologized to her a flicker of panic raced through me and then faded away. There wasn't enough life left in me to panic. I'd made a mistake and I was dying. Apparently not even a Speck afterlife was available to me. I'd simply stop being. Apparently I hadn't died correctly. Oops. Robin Hobb
About This Quote

When someone has hurt you, you may feel that you are dying inside. You feel like your whole world is crumbling around you. You may even want to die because of the pain you are experiencing. The question is, do you take this pain and use it as fuel to rise above the troubled waters? Or do you wallow in the depths of despair and give up on life completely?
