About This Quote

Masochists hold on to broken people. Artists hold on to broken memories. This is a saying that can be taken two ways. If we were to believe that masochists hold on to broken people, we could infer that they do so to feel the pain and embrace the victimhood of their brokenness, while artists hold on to broken memories, we know that writers and playwrights do so to remember our past and create a better future for ourselves.
