Ally CondieAnd I'll tell her that I don't want my life to be samples and scraps. A taste of everything but a meal of nothing.
About This Quote
When you're in love with someone, it's likely that you'll feel like every other relationship you've ever had has been mere samples and scraps. You feel like you've got nothing to give them, because the only thing you've got is your heart. You want to do something special for them, but you feel like you can't, because if it's any good, they'll know it right away. So you settle for something simple, but there's something missing.
That missing piece is what makes things perfect. Maybe it's dancing together under the stars, maybe it's just being able to look into each other's eyes without being completely overwhelmed by how much you love them. And that's why this quote is so important.
You have to take your time and enjoy life with the person who means so much to you.
