More quotes by Gayle Forman

Gayle Forman
Sarcasm creates a chasm between yourself and others.
Gayle Forman

Gayle Forman
It's a good thing Kerry's dead, because that funeral would've sent him over the edge, Henry said.
Gayle Forman
Love can make you immortal
Gayle Forman
If these walls could talk, I wonder what secrets they'd tell.
Gayle Forman
Willem tsk-tsks. You Americans are so violent. I'm Dutch. The worst I will do is run her over with a bicycle.
Gayle Forman
Life might take you down different roads. But each of you gets to decide which one to take.
Gayle Forman
The line between true self and feigned self is blurred on all sides. Which I think is a rather handy metaphor for falling in love.
Gayle Forman
He looks at one of the pictures for a long time. Then he looks at me. I'll keep you up here. He taps his temple. Where you can't get lost.
Gayle Forman
I've become to realize there's a world of difference between knowing something happened, even knowing why it happened, and believing it.
Gayle Forman
