"There is a moment when all hope disappears, all pride is gone, all expectation, all faith, all desire.  I own that moment.  It belongs to me.  That's when I hear the sound, the sound of a mind breaking.  It's not a loud crack like when bones shatter or a spine fractures or a skull collapses.  And it's not something soft and wet like a heart breaking.  It's a sound that makes you wonder how much pain a person can endure; a sound that shatters memories and lets the past leak into the present; a sound so high that only the hounds of hell can hear it.

        Can you hear it?  Someone is curled up in a tiny ball crying softly into an endless night."      ~ SHATTER by Michael Robotham


This is by far my absolute favorite quote since I was in grade school.
