“Some things don’t last forever, but some things do. Like a good song, or a good book, or a good memory you can take out and unfold in your darkest times, pressing down on the corners and peering in close, hoping you still recognize the person you see there.”
Sarah Dessen
“Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God’s feet, equal — as we are!”
Charlotte Brontë
“I’d said it before and meant it: Alive or undead, the love of my life was a badass.”

“We live for books.”
Umberto Eco

there are as many minds as there
are heads, then there are as many
kinds of love as there are hearts.”
Leo Tolstoy
“Words can be like X-rays if you use them properly — they’ll go through anything. You read and you’re pierced.”
Aldous Huxley
“There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.”
Laurell K. Hamilton
“If you like her, if she makes you happy, and if you feel like you know her—then don’t let her go.”
Nicholas Sparks
“I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.”
Sarah Dessen
“People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.”
A.A. Milne
“It always shocked me when I realized that I wasn’t the only person in the world who thought and felt such strange and awful things.”
John Green
