More quotes by Rachel Cohn
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.
Rachel Cohn
I love snow for the same reason I love Christmas: It brings people together while time stands still. Cozy couples lazily meandered the streets and children trudged sleds and chased snowballs.

Rachel Cohn
Bruises mapped my body from bumping into tables and tripping over curbs while walking with a book in my hand, my eyes focused on the pages instead of the live space around me.
Rachel Cohn
One of the failures of cellular communication is that tiredness often comes across as sadness.
Rachel Cohn
The universe doesn't decide what's right or not right. You do.
Rachel Cohn
Things change all the time, mostly in little ways.
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
True Love. Iām starting to suspect the concept is pure illusion, an insipid brand name manufactured by Hallmark and Disney.ā ā Cupcake
Rachel Cohn
But I know the difference. Everyone else is a ghost. I exist here alone, stranded by choice. Deserted.
Rachel Cohn
You should never wish for wishful thinking.
Rachel Cohn
I particularly loved the adjective bookish, which I found other people used about as often as ramrod or chum or teetotaler.
Rachel Cohn
All this hoping for nothing-or someone-that's maybe hopeless
