More quotes by Lauren Oliver
Snapshots, moments, mere seconds: as fragile and beautiful and hopeless as a single butterfly, flapping on against a gathering wind.
Lauren Oliver
It was all very strange, Mr. Gray thought, as he wiped the coffee canister clean with a sponge. Very, very mysterious. You were born you lived a whole life and at the end, you wound up in a coffee canister. Ah, well, he said out loud quietly. That's just the way things are. Life's a funny business. Death, he supposed, was the punch line.

only when it rains. and sometimes, too, when i remember.
Lauren Oliver
This is not the person I wanted to become: Hatred has carved a permanent place inside me, a hollow where things are so easily lost.
Lauren Oliver
I am now officially married to Fred Hargrove. Nothing will ever be the same.
Lauren Oliver
It's a miracle I was able to get out of the house today. It's a miracle I'm even wearing pants, a double miracle I remembered to wear shoes.
Lauren Oliver
Even the greatest movements on earth, have their beginnings with something small.
Lauren Oliver
I'm not scared, if that's what you're wondering. The moment of death is full of sound and warmth and light shooting away, arcing up and up and up, and if singing were a feeling it would be this, this light, this lifting, like laughing... The rest you have to find out for yourself.
Lauren Oliver
It strikes me how strange people are. You can see them every day - you can think you know them - and then you fшnd out you hardly know them at all.
Lauren Oliver
This is what hatred is. It will feed you and at the same time turn you to rot.
Lauren Oliver
Something must die so that others can live.
Lauren Oliver
The second time my world exploded, it was also because of a word. A word that worked its way out of my throat and danced onto and out of my lips before I could think about it, or stop it. The question was: Will you meet me tomorrow? And the word was: Yes.
Lauren Oliver
But...books are so much more. Some of them are webs you can feel your way along their threads, but just barely, into strange and dark corners. Some of them are balloons bobbing up through the sky: totally self-contained, and unreachable, but beautiful to watch. And some of them―the best ones―are doors.
Lauren Oliver
But if you do believe, then you already know all about magic.
Lauren Oliver
It's the way he says my name: like music.
Lauren Oliver
Not gray, exactly. Right before the sun rises there's a moment when the whole sky goes this pale nothing color-not really gray but sort of, or sort of white, and I've always really liked it because it reminds me of waiting for something good to happen.
Lauren Oliver
That's my favorite thing about him. I like to lie next to him when it's late, dark, and so quiet I can hear my own heartbeat. It's times like that when I'm sure that I'm in love.
Lauren Oliver
Love: a single word, a wispy thing, a word no bigger or longer than an edge.
Lauren Oliver
Maybe all of these different possibilities exist at the same time, like each moment we live has a thousand other moments layered underneath it that look different.
Lauren Oliver
The priests and the scientists are right about one thing: At our heart, at our base, we are no better than animals.
