Cecelia Ahern
You can run and run as fast and as far as you like, but the truth is, wherever you run, there you are.
Cecelia Ahern
I used to think that it was better to have too much than too little, but now I think if the too much was never supposed to be yours, you should just take what is yours and give the rest back.

What is it with people these days? he hisses... In my day, something just was. None of this analysis a hundred times over.

Cecelia Ahern
The important thing is not what we look like, but the role we play in our best friend’s life. Friends choose certain friends because that’s the kind of company they are looking for at that specific time, not because they’re the correct height, age, or have the right hair color
