More quotes by Gayle Forman
He gives me a little shrug, like, of course, why else? And at this point, I really have no right to be surprised by people's capacity for kindness and generosity, but still, I am. I'm floored every time.
Gayle Forman
And our lips. There isn't enough skin, enough spit, enough time, for the lost years that our lips are trying to make up for as they find each other. We kiss. The electric current switches to high. The lights throughout all of Brooklyn must be surging.
Gayle Forman
Travelling is like a talent, like whistling or dancing. And some people have it.
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
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.
Gayle Forman
Needle and thread flesh and bone Spit and sinew, heartbreak is home. Your suture lines, they sparkle like diamonds Bright stars to light my confinement Stitch.
Gayle Forman
In that twisted incestuous way of fate, Mia's a part of our history, and we're among the shards of her legacy.
Gayle Forman
And I kissed him back so hard, like I was trying to merge our bodies through our lips.
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
Traveling is not something you are good at. It is something you do. Like breathing.
Gayle Forman
What would you do if you had to choose?
Gayle Forman
It takes certain kind of naiveté, or perhaps just stupidity, to know things will end and still hope otherwise.
Gayle Forman
You have to fall in love to be in love, but falling in love isn't the same as being in love
Gayle Forman
Leaving people to jumped conclusions is sometimes simpler than explaining a complicated truth
