Gayle Forman
Or maybe it's not a miracle. Maybe this is just life. When you open yourself up to it. When you put yourself in the path of it. When you say yes.
Gayle Forman
Because you don’t ever find things when you’re looking for them. You find them when you’re not.” “If that were true, nobody would ever find their keys.

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
Pictures can be pretty deceptive.
Gayle Forman
You forget, time doesn't exist anymore. You gave it to me.
Gayle Forman
You meet people, you part ways, sometimes you cross paths again. Mostly, you don't.
Gayle Forman
Whoever said that the past isn't dead had it backward. It's the future that's already dead, already played out.
Gayle Forman
I don't know who I am. Or maybe I do know who I am and I just don't want to be her anymore.
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
Letting go. Everyone talks about it like it's the easiest thing. Unfurl your fingers one by one until your hand is open.
Gayle Forman
Bribes are the glue that's kept teenagers and parents connected for generations
