You see, we didn't know.
Lauren Oliver
One of the strangest things about life is that it will chug on, blind and oblivious, even as your private world - your little carved-out sphere - is twisting and morphing, even breaking apart.
Lauren Oliver
For a moment, my heart aches for him. I should never have asked him to join me here I should never have asked him to cross.
Lauren Oliver
I'm so tired after dinner I fall asleep with my clothes on, almost as soon as my head hits the pillow, and so I forget to ask God, in my prayers, to keep me from waking up.
Lauren Oliver
That's what Zombieland is: frozen, calm, quiet.
Lauren Oliver
This is what happens when you try to help people. You get screwed.
Lauren Oliver
Take it from me: If you hear the past speaking to you, feel it tugging up your back and runing its fingers up your spine, the best thing to do-the only thing-is run.
Lauren Oliver
His secret name, which belongs to me, and to him, and to no one else.

Lauren Oliver
Let me tell you something about dying: it's not as bad as they says. it's the coming-back-to-life part that hurts.
Lauren Oliver
No guy in his right mind would ever choose me when there are people like Hana in the world: It would be like settling for a stale cookie when what you really want is a big bowl of ice cream, whipped cream and cherries and chocolate sprinkles included.
Lauren Oliver
You can try to pin me down with a hundred thousand arms, but I will find a way to resist
Lauren Oliver
Popularity's a weird thing. You can't really define it, and it's not cool to talk about, but you know it when you see it. Like a lazy eye, or porn.
Lauren Oliver
I said, I prefer the ocean when it's gray. Or not really gray. A pale, in-between color. It reminds me of waiting for something good to happen.
Lauren Oliver
He was still in love with you, anyway.
Lauren Oliver
Love: a single word, a wispy thing, a word no bigger or longer than an edge. That's what it is: an edge a razor. It draws up through the center of your life, cutting everything in two. Before and after. The rest of the world falls away on either side.
Lauren Oliver
And when we are with Alex, I might as well not be there. They speak in a language of whispers and giggles and secrets their words are like a fairy-tale tangle of thorns, which place a wall between us.
Lauren Oliver
For the first time in my life I actually feel sorry for Carol. I'm only seventeen years old, and I already know something she doesn't know: I know that life isn't life if you just float through it. I know that the whole point- the only point- is to find things that matter, and hold on to them, and fight for them, and refuse to let them go.
Lauren Oliver
I wonder whether she was sorry for leaving us behind.
