Sarah DessenThere comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart. So you'd better learn the sound of it. Otherwise you'll never understand what it's saying.
About This Quote
This quote speaks of the need to listen to your own heart. There are times in life when you will be confused or even angry with the world. Your heart will shout at you, but you will ignore it. Eventually, you will not hear it anymore.
