Quote

If my love were an ocean, there would be no more land. If my love were a desert, you would see only sand. If my love were a star- late at night, only light. And if my love could grow wings, I'd be soaring in flight.

I sat. And I thought. And the more I thought, connecting the events in my life, the more my heart collapsed.
Jay Asher
Image
A week went by and nothing. But eventually, as they always will, the rumors reached me. And everyone knows you can't disprove a rumor.
Jay Asher

It's important to be aware of how we treat others. Even though someone appears to shrug off a sideways comment or to not be affected by a rumor, it's impossible to know everything else going on in that person's life, how we might be adding to his/her pain. People do have an impact on the lives of others that's undeniable.

Maybe it didn’t seem like a big deal to you Zach. But now, I hope you understand. My world was collapsing. I needed those notes. I needed any hope those notes might have offered. And you? You took that hope away. You decided I didn’t deserve to have it.

I repeat his words in my head. What's going on? What's going on? Oh, well, since you asked, I got a bunch of tapes in the mail today from a girl who killed herself. Apparently, I had something to do with it. I'm not sure what that is, so I was wondering if I could borrow your Walkman to find out. 'Not much,' I say.

What you don't understand, you can make mean anything.
Jay Asher
Image
That's why you did it. You wanted your world to collapse around you. You wanted everything to get as dark as possible.
Jay Asher

Because when you're posed, you know someone's watching. You put on your very best smile. You let your sweetest personality shine.
Jay Asher

That’s when I said it. That’s when I whispered to her, “I’m so sorry.” Because inside, I felt so happy and sad at the same time. Sad that it took me so long to get there. But happy that we got there together.

Maybe you didn't know what people thought of you because they themselves didn't know what they thought of you. Maybe you didn't give us enough to go on, Hannah.

The longer you wait, and this is true, the slower the hands will move.

Maybe it's not as important to you as it was for me, but that's not for you to decide.

Actually, I love trying to figure out why certain books become hits while others, which may be just as good, have trouble finding an audience.
