Quote

There are aspectsof this life-- of this world-- from which you can never walk away. Ever. The fact that almost everything you say to almost everyone you love for the rest of your life will be a lie is one of them.

Excuse me, but aren't boys forbidden on this floor?' Macey said on our way to the suite. 'That's the advantage of being the only boy,' he (Zach) said. 'No one actually comes right out and makes rules like that.

Gabrielle, Hale? Kat smacked his shoulder. It wasn't bad enough that you got me kicked out of school, but you had to use her to help you? Gabrielle! I can hear you, her cousin sang beside her. Hale looked at Gabrielle and gestured at Kat. She's adorable when she's jealous. Kat kicked his shin.
