“I think the heart is like a guitar string. The times when things get really rough and you don't know what to do... ...it feels like a string inside your chest is being wound tighter and tighter. When it's stretched to its limit like that, it hurts when it's struck. Sometimes it breaks. And you think there's no way it'll ever be fixed. But then... ...if someone comes along and brings you a new string... ...wouldn't that help heal the damage... ...at least a little?”
