More quotes by Meg Cabot
It's kind of depressing, if you think about it. I mean, me being so young, and yet so cynical and suspicious.
Meg Cabot
Being brave is when you have to do something because you know it is right, but at the same time, you are afraid to do it, because it might hurt or whatever. But you do it anyway.

Hasn’t anyone ever told you,” Jesse asked, in a semi-amused voice, “ that a gentleman never lays a hand on a lady?” Which I thought was kind of funny, considering where Jesse had had his hand the last time I’d seen him. But I thought it better to let that slide.

I can't even tell you how good it felt to see him. It felt even better when he reached through the metal grate, wrapped his fingers around the front of my shirt, dragged me forward, and kissed me through the bars. Sorry he said-only not looking to sorry, if you know what I mean.

Growing up, I mostly read comic books and sci-fi. Then I discovered the book 'Jane Eyre' by Jane Austen. It introduced me to the world of romance, which I have since never left. Also, the world of the first-person narrative.
Meg Cabot
I'm a liar. And I can't stop thinking about boys.
Meg Cabot
And I like a good horror story as much as the next person so long as they kill off some men too and not just girls. But the voices Joan heard were real. There’s clear and substantiated proof they were real.
Meg Cabot
But I’m living proof you don’t have to spend a lot in order to look great.
Meg Cabot
and standing before me a bloodied bottle of Absolut in her hand, is Mrs. Allington, her pink jogging suit drenched, her chest heaving, her eyes filled with contempt as she stared down at Rachel's prone body. Mrs. Allington shakes her head. I'm a size twelve, she says.
Meg Cabot
I'm sorry, Heather, but everything was not just fine before I got here. You know how I know that? Because you're dead. Okay? You are dead. Dead people don't have lockers, or best friends, or boyfriends. You know why? Because they're dead.-Suze Simon
Meg Cabot
It’s so much easier to walk away than it is to have to explain to someone that you never want to see them again.
Meg Cabot
But things were different now. I finally had my head -pun intended- on straight.
Meg Cabot
Though I imagine in your case, trying not to fall just made you fall harder.
Meg Cabot
There’s no accountability anymore, Pierce, no one holds anyone accountable for what they do. It’s always someone else’s fault. Usually people just blame the victim.
Meg Cabot
Oh, that's just great. I come all the way back here, risking major brain cell burnout, and you don't even believe me? I'm basically guaranteeing myself a lifetime of heartbreak, and all you have to say is that you think I'm not right in the head?
Meg Cabot
It just goes to show that what one person considers a bad attitude might actually just be total frustration over being pushed beyond the brink of one's mental and physical endurance.
Meg Cabot
You know in sixth grade, when they made all of us girls go into this other room and watch a video about getting our periods and stuff? I bet while we were gone, the boys were watching a video about how to look at each other in that infuriating way.
