The truths that matter most to us come always half spoken.

Summary

This quote suggests that the most profound truths in life are often left unexpressed or only partially communicated. It implies that some truths are difficult to articulate fully, as they may be complex or deeply personal, requiring more than words to convey their meaning. These significant truths may be felt and understood on a deeper level, beyond the limitations of language and communication. Thus, this quote emphasizes the importance of being attuned to unspoken messages and the unexpressed aspects of our truths.

Those words were music to my ears: Don't change, Don't change. Don't change . . . I love you as you are. I relaxed. I came alive. And suddenly I changed!
