More quotes by Gayle Forman
It's a good thing Kerry's dead, because that funeral would've sent him over the edge, Henry said.
Gayle Forman
One day she told me that they'd decided that my gender was divvied into two neat piles-Men and Guys. Basically, all the saints of the world: Men. The jerks, the players, the wet T-shirt contest aficionados? They were Guys.
Gayle Forman
And that's just it, isn't it? That's how we manage to survive the loss. Because love, it never dies, it never goes away, it never fades, so long as you hang on to it.
Gayle Forman
But then Mason touches my neck, to the spot on it where the cut from that night has since healed, and I pull away. He was right, after all it didn't leave a scar, though part of me wishes it had. At least I'd have some evidence, some justification of this permanence. Stains are even worse when you're the only one who can see them.
Gayle Forman
Something special is ending, and you're sad, but you can't be that said because, hey, it was good while it lasted, and there'll be other vacations, other good times.
Gayle Forman
Why get stained when getting dirty is so much more fun
Gayle Forman
Because if time can be fluid, then maybe something that is just one day can go on indefinitely

Gayle Forman
How can it be so unclear to her when it's like the fingers on my hand to me?
Gayle Forman
Because for that day, I really did become Lulu. Maybe not from the film or the real Louise Brooks, but my own idea of what Lulu represented. Freedom. Daring. Adventure. Saying yes.
Gayle Forman
If I stay. If I live. It's up to me.
Gayle Forman
But seventeen is an inconvenient time to fall in love.
Gayle Forman
Really? Was that how you quit me?
Gayle Forman
So, this is how it's become? This is how I've become? A walking contradiction? I'm surrounded by people and feel alone. I claim to crave a bit of normalcy but now that I have some, it's like I don't know what to do with it, I don't know how to be a normal person anymore.
Gayle Forman
My stomach lurched, an appetizer before the full portion of heartache I had a feeling was going to be served at some point soon.
Gayle Forman
And I kissed him back so hard, like I was trying to merge our bodies through our lips.
Gayle Forman
...no way through it but through it, I tell myself.
Gayle Forman
The boogeyman sleeps on your side of the bad Whispers in my ear :Better of Dead Fills my dreams with sirens and lights of regret Kisses me gently when i wake up in a sweat boo!
Gayle Forman
It's quiet now. So quiet that can almost hear other people's dreams.
Gayle Forman
It takes certain kind of naiveté, or perhaps just stupidity, to know things will end and still hope otherwise.
