Rachel Cohn
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.
Rachel Cohn
In a field, I am the absence of field. In a crowd, I am the absence of crowd. In a dream, I am the absence of dream. But I don't want to live as an absence. I move to keep things whole. Because sometimes I feel drunk on positivity. Sometimes I feel amazement at the tangle of words and lives, and I want to be a part of that tangle.
Rachel Cohn
I could become a nun even if I am a non-believer. I'll learn to fake it like Nick did with me. I will minister the gospel of compassion and kindness and please, always use a condom, from famine-stricken nations to war-torn dead zones. It's possible I might become a nun who kisses other nuns.

Rachel Cohn
I've always resented Hermione, because I wanted to be her so badly and she never seemed to appreciate as much as I thought she should that she got be her. She got to live at Hogwarts and be friends with Harry and kiss Ron, which was supposed to happen to me.
Rachel Cohn
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.
Rachel Cohn
No--when the rain falls you just let it fall and you grin like a madman and you dance with it, because if you can make yourself happy in the rain then you're doing pretty alright in life. (Nick, page 156)
Rachel Cohn
Once upon a time, Sleeping Beauty decided to take a nap from which she would never wake up.
Rachel Cohn
Dumped doesn't even begin to describe it. If you're going to use a trash metaphor, incinerated is more like it.
Rachel Cohn
Therefore. Ergo. Erg. Argh. Ugh.
Rachel Cohn
People are like that, judging you before they know you.
Rachel Cohn
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.
Rachel Cohn
I don't know why I'm saying any of this, except that it's the truth. -Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
