But I know the difference. Everyone else is a ghost. I exist here alone, stranded by choice. Deserted.

The desert adapts. The people adapt. Live. Die. Struggle. Suffer. Create. The people in the real world beyond Demesne's ring are not all manufactured perfection. They deal.

It's the great male fantasy-all it takes is one dance to know that she's the one. All it takes is the sound of her song from the tower, or a look at her sleeping face. And right away you know-this is the girl in your head, sleeping or dancing or singing in front of you. Yes, girls want princes, but boys want their princesses just as much.

The complexity embedded in the different levels of meaning that go along with the words I love you ought to be a whole mindfuck of a video game

There is no such thing as a soulmate...and who would want there to be? I don't want half of a shared soul. I want my own damn soul.
Rachel Cohn
Image
I feel like you may be a special and kind person. And I would like to make it my business to know special and kind people. Especially if they are boys my age.

Life is funny, baby, and that's no joke

They were tricky, those demons. Could they be trusted? Of course they could be trusted. She'd created them. She owned them. They wouldn't lead her astray.

But, you see, that's the luxury of being a lout - you get to be selective about when you care and when you don't. The rest of us get stuck when your care goes shallow.

I don't see why ogling same-sex kissing should be the exclusive domain of frat boys whacking off to lesbian action, that's so sexist. Feminism should be all inclusive- it should be about sexual liberation, equal pay for equal work, and the fundamental girl right of boy2boy appreciation.

It's bullshit to think of friendship and romance as being different. They're not. They're just variations of the same love. Variations of the same desire to be close.
