Quotes About Bruisable

Soul is more bruisable than flesh, and Juila was wounded in every fiber of her spirit.
~ Edith Wharton
Home is a damaged word, bruisable as fruit, in the cruel glossaries of the language I choose to describe the long, fearful march of my childhood. Home was a word that caught in my throat, stung like a paper cut, drew blood in its passover of my life, and hurt me in all the soft places. My longing for home was as powerful as fire in my bloodstream.
~ Pat Conroy
