E. Lockhart
Love is when you have a really amazing piece of cake, and it’s the very last piece, but you let him have it.
E. Lockhart
Sex Ed - when I finally got to take it - was all about biology and birth control and nothing about anything that actually goes on between people.
E. Lockhart
It is better to be alone, she figures, than to be with someone who can't see who you are. It is better to lead than to follow. It is better to speak up than stay silent. It is better to open doors than to shut them on people. She will not be simple and sweet. She will not be what people tell her to be. That Bunny Rabbit is dead.
E. Lockhart
