“Because unlike the community pool, love is more like swimming in the ocean. Once you’re far out, there are no lifeguards or railings, and more often than not, your final destination is not forward but back from where you came.

Brooke Hogan, when asked who she’s voting for by a potential roommate on her series Brooke Knows Best.
I want to throw up. What an asshole.

I’m so jealous!
