By that point, it’ll have been more than year since I met Lulu. Any sane person would say it’s too late. It already felt too late that first day, when I woke up in the hospital. But even so, I’ve kept looking. I’m still looking.

More quotes by Gayle Forman
If I stay. If I live. It's up to me.
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
Traveling is not something you are good at. It is something you do. Like breathing.
Gayle Forman
I want to ask him where that kitchen is. Where he's from. But he seems guarded. Or maybe it's me. Maybe making friends is a specific skill, and I missed the lesson.
Gayle Forman
Bribes are the glue that's kept teenagers and parents connected for generations
Gayle Forman
I like French fries, I say. I like French fries? I sound like a slow child in a made-for-TV movie.
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
..all I left with was the magnitude of my mistake, of my missing you. And I have to watch you from this distance, watch you achieve your dreams, live what seemed like this perfect life.
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
It's quiet now. So quiet that can almost hear other people's dreams.
Gayle Forman
How can it be so unclear to her when it's like the fingers on my hand to me?
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
Closure. I loathe that word.
Gayle Forman
But what if Shakespeare― and Hamlet― were asking the wrong question? What if the real question is not whether to be, but how to be?
Gayle Forman
I'm not choosing, but I'm running out of fight.
Gayle Forman
I don’t discount a magical hand of fate. I am an actor, after all, and a Shakespearian, no less. But it can’t be the ruling force of your life. You have to be the driver.
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
Sometimes the wind blows you places you weren't expecting: sometimes it blows you away from those places, too.
Gayle Forman
I’ve been feeling something else. Like I’m about to be sucked into something powerful and painful.
Gayle Forman
...no way through it but through it, I tell myself.
