You can destroy a factory, and they'll build another. But once you destroy a life, that's it. You never get that person back.
Alexandra Bracken
They want you to think that darkness or evil is only something that gets inflicted on you by the outside world, but I know better, and I think the freak does, too. Sometimes the darkness lives inside you, and sometimes it wins.
Alexandra Bracken
Sometimes you're the one speeding along in a panic, doing too much, not paying attention, wrecking things you don't mean to. And sometimes life just happens to you, and you can't dodge it. It crashes into you because it wants to see what you're made of.
Alexandra Bracken
What good is strength if you have no sense?
Alexandra Bracken

Alexandra Bracken

Alexandra Bracken
He's so busy looking inside people to find the good that he misses the knife they're holding in their hand.
Alexandra Bracken
Forgive yourself, but don't forget
Alexandra Bracken
It was almost painful, I thought, to have a heart so swollen with gratitude and what must have been pure, untainted happiness. I wanted to live inside the feeling forever.
Alexandra Bracken
Everyone needs reality to punch them in the face every once in a while. Keeps you on guard.
Alexandra Bracken
Maybe we had just gotten too used to being alone-- and maybe that needed to change.
Alexandra Bracken
I think maybe the most frustrating feeling in the world is to have something to say buy not know how to put it into words. To have lived through something but not be able to get it out of you before it festers.
Alexandra Bracken
I think I'm losing it—I don't know what's happening, what happened, but I look at you, I look at you, and I love you so much. Not because of anything you've said, or done, or anything at all. I look at you, and I just love you, and it terrifies me. It terrifies me what I would do for you.
Alexandra Bracken
But there's a beginning in an end, you know? It's true that you can't reclaim what you had, but you can lock it up behind you. Start fresh.
Alexandra Bracken
The most important thing you ever did was learn how to survive. Do not let anyone make you feel like you shouldn't have.
