Gayle Forman
What would you do if you had to choose?

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
You just work through it. You just hang in there.

It's okay if you want to go. Everyone wants you to stay. I want you to stay more than I've ever wanted anything in my life. But that's what I want and I could see why it might not be what you want. So I just wanted to tell you that I understand if you go. It's okay if you have to leave us. It's okay if you want to stop fighting.
Gayle Forman
Bribes are the glue that's kept teenagers and parents connected for generations
Gayle Forman
It's just accidental, just temporary. Until the next accident sends me somewhere new. That's how life works.
Gayle Forman
I have a feeling that once you live through something like this, you become a little bit invincible.
Gayle Forman
Willem, I suspect deep down you know exactly why you're here, exactly what you want, but you're unwilling to the wanting, let alone the having. Because both of those propositions are terrifying.
Gayle Forman
I want to make her cry and then lick up the tears.
Gayle Forman
And something tells me if it matters, maybe it shouldn't be easy.
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 want to undo this. To make it right. But I have no idea how. I don't seem to know how to open up to people without getting the door slammed in my face. So I do nothing.
