More quotes by Gayle Forman
I am adrenaline slammed into inertia: a fast car stuck in traffic.
Gayle Forman
If I stay. If I live. It’s up to me. All this business about medically induced comas is just doctor talk. It’s not up to the doctors. It’s not up to the absentee angels. It’s not even up to God who, if He exists, is nowhere around right now. It’s up to me.

Gayle Forman
I know that all the magic kisses in the world probably couldn't have helped him today. But I would do anything to have been able to give him one.
Gayle Forman
I think you're the sort of person who finds money on the ground and waves it in the air and asks if anyone has lost it. I think you cry in movies that aren't even sad because you have a soft heart, though you don't let it show. I think you do things that scare you, and that makes you braver than those adrenaline junkies who bungee-jump off bridges.
Gayle Forman
Who says I breathe music? Who says I even breathe?
Gayle Forman
I don't hate you. I don't think I ever really did. It was just anger. And once I faced it head-on, once understood it, it dissipated. -Mia
Gayle Forman
I want to make her cry and then lick up the tears.
Gayle Forman
I think everything is happening all the time, but if you don't put yourself in the path of it, you miss it. When you travel, you put yourself out there. It's not always great. Sometimes it's terrible. But other times ... [...] It's not so bad.
Gayle Forman
Forward momentum. That's my new motto. No regrets. And no going back.
Gayle Forman
