out of the mouths of... craig thompson's friends

I'm at work catching up on some blogs I've been out of touch with recently...Just read this post on beloved graphic novelist Craig Thompson's blog with a sketchbook page quoting a conversation with a friend of his. His friend remarks:

"right now, in this world, to love is easy but to let someone else love you is difficult, because you have to show your weaknesses and stop being scared they'll eat you.

Truest.
