Cassandra ClareOr maybe it's just that beautiful things are so easily broken by the world.' - Jocelyn
About This Quote
Jocelyn is referring to the gifts of nature. Some of the most beautiful things in life can be easily broken or destroyed, but beauty itself isn't affected. For example, flowers aren't affected by inclement weather. They are here, they are beautiful, and they will be back next spring.
That's how Jocelyn sees the world. Life is beautiful, but it's also fragile. You should treasure it while you have it because it can be ripped away at any moment.
