More quotes by 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
I'm so tired of missing things I don't have.
Gayle Forman
And that's when I understand that I have been stained. Whether I'm still in love with him, whether he was ever in love with me, and no matter who he's in love with now, Willem changed my life. He showed me how to get lost, and then I showed myself how to get found.
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
Obey the muse, Liz said. She's a fickle mistress.
Gayle Forman
She's still beautiful. Not in an obvious Vanessa LeGrande or Byrn Shraeder kind of way. In a quiet way that's always been devastating to me.

Gayle Forman

Gayle Forman
You just work through it. You just hang in there.
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
You can have your wishes, your plans, but at the end of the day, it's out of your control -Mia
Gayle Forman
The line between true self and feigned self is blurred on all sides. Which I think is a rather handy metaphor for falling in love.
Gayle Forman
You stood over me and you made a promise to me, as sacred as any vow. And I can understand why you're angry, but you can't blame me. You can't hate me for taking your word.
Gayle Forman
She left for Juilliard the day after Labor Day. I drove her to the airport. She kissed me good-bye. She told me that she loved me more than life itself. Then she stepped through security. She never came back.
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
Can you move on from something when you're not sure what it is you're moving on from?
Gayle Forman
Leaving people to jumped conclusions is sometimes simpler than explaining a complicated truth
Gayle Forman
I am adrenaline slammed into inertia: a fast car stuck in traffic.
Gayle Forman
Willem holds my wrist for a long moment, looking at that birthmark. Then he lifts it to his mouth. And though his lips are soft and his kiss is gentle, it feels like a knife jamming into the electrical socket. It feels like the moment when I go live
Gayle Forman
If I stay. If I live. It's up to me.
