More quotes by Jay Asher
I left. When I should have stayed.
Jay Asher

Jay Asher
And everyone knows you can’t disprove a rumor.
Jay Asher
It was love because it was worth it.

Jay Asher

Jay Asher
Stories about sensitive issues like sex, drugs or sexual assault, suicide and teen drinking, are often censored because people just don't want to talk about those things. It's not that these things don't happen, but when they're shared in a fictional setting, for some reason they make some people uncomfortable.
Jay Asher
And it feels strange, almost sad, to walk through ther empty halls. Each step I take sounds so lonely.
Jay Asher
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.
Jay Asher
I miss video games where the jump-kick was the trickiest combo to master.
Jay Asher
The Golden Rule will always be good advice!
