E. Lockhart
Dances are generally more fun to think about and get ready for than they actually are when you get there.
E. Lockhart
Never take a seat in the back of the room. Winners sit up front.
E. Lockhart
Secrets are more powerful when people know you've got them.
E. Lockhart
If those are your friends, you've got no need for enemies.
E. Lockhart
Love is when you give someone else the power to destroy you, and you trust them not to do it.
E. Lockhart

E. Lockhart
A tomato may be a fruit, but it is a singular fruit. A savory fruit. A fruit that has ambitions far beyond the ambitions of other fruits.
E. Lockhart
And this is my life, getting dumped with no warning. Or liking people who don't like me back, or who don't like me enough, or not as much as they like someone else.
E. Lockhart
