Once you had put the pieces back together, even though you may look intact, you were never quite the same as you'd been before the fall.

Summary

This quote suggests that after going through a challenging or difficult experience and rebuilding oneself, one cannot completely return to their previous state. While they may appear whole for the outside world, something has fundamentally changed within them. It implies that after overcoming adversity, we are transformed, and the scars or lessons learned from the "fall" will forever shape the person we become.
