Quotations about

Fixing

We put our truths together in pieces, but you use nails, and I use glue. You mend with staples. I mend with screws. You stitch what I would bandage. Your truth may not look like mine, but that is not what matters. What matters is this: you can look at a scar and see hurt or you can look at a scar and see healing. Try to understand.

—Sheri Reynolds

I have a history of trying to fix that which is broken, and I still don't think I've fully learned that people can't be fixed, they have to fix themselves.

—L.H. Cosway in Tegan's Blood

You can't fix people or make them change; the only thing you can do is pack your things and leave if it isn't working for you.

—Greg Behrendt in It's Just a Date
