About This Quote
When we get lots of people and they don’t all come through in the way we want them to, we have to figure out a way to compromise and keep them all. We always want what we can’t have, but sometimes, if you have to give up the things you want the most, you can still have everything you need. So, if you can’t have the person you love for whatever reason, try not to give up on them.
