About This Quote

A diamond is a hard, crystalline, pure substance. It is very rare, but beautiful. If you find a diamond on the ground, you should keep it far away from other diamonds. Just like diamonds are rare and beautiful (they are rare because they are very hard), the person who has been hurt by another person is also very precious. When you see that person at their lowest point, you should understand that it may be your chance to be with them again.
