You tell a kid he doesn't like to read, and he'll believe you
Gabrielle Zevin
But I believe good things happen everyday. I believe good things happen even when bad things happen. And I believe on a happy day like today, we can still feel a little sad. And that's life, isn't it?

It was funny how dad was more honest in a book that anyone in the world could pick up and read than he could be talking to me. Or maybe it was sad. One or the other. Sometimes it’s hard to tell.
Gabrielle Zevin
Ask two people to tell you anything, you’ll get two versions. Even easy things like directions, let alone important or semi-controversial topics like why a fight started or what a person was generally like. If you don’t know something for yourself, you just can’t be sure.
Gabrielle Zevin
A life isn't measured in hours and minutes. It's the quality, not the length.
Gabrielle Zevin

A life isn't measured in hours or minutes. Its the quality not the length. All things considered I've been luckier than most. Almost sixteen years on Earth, and I've already had eight good ones here.

Gabrielle Zevin

Gabrielle Zevin
It was such a sweet, sad song with such sweet, sad lyrics. Old-fashioned a little, but also timeless.
Gabrielle Zevin
Covers matter. In my experience, a different cover can make you think you're reading an entirely different book.
Gabrielle Zevin
Daddy always said that an option that you know to have a bad outcome is only a fool's option, i.e., not an option at all. And I liked to think that Daddy hadn't raised a fool.
Gabrielle Zevin
Well, for one, you have to remember not to scream. Once you have their attention, whispering is much more effective. Screaming ghosts scare people, you know
Gabrielle Zevin
I let myself feel good and sorry for myself, but only for a second. Daddy always said that the most useless of all human emotions was self-pity.
Gabrielle Zevin
But I wondered if all this kissing was a bad habit with him and me. The thing we did with our mouths instead of talking.
Gabrielle Zevin
You know everything you need to know about a person from the answer to the question, What is your favorite book?
Gabrielle Zevin
Oh, says Owen, but I would have, you know. I know you would have, says Liz, and knowing you would have is nearly as good.
Gabrielle Zevin
I accept your condemnation, I said.

Saying you're through with romance is like saying you're done with living, Betty. Life is better with a little romance, you know.
