Rainbow Rowell
You give away nice like it doesn't cost you anything.

For the first time in weeks, Park didn't have that anxious feeling in his stomach on the way home from school, like he had to soak up enough Eleanor to keep him until the next day.
Rainbow Rowell
I dare you to call Ask-A-Nurse and tell them you feel a presence in your womb region.

Holding Eleanor’s hand was like holding a butterfly. Or a heartbeat. Like holding something complete, and completely alive. As soon as he touched her, he wondered how he’d gone this long without doing it. He rubbed his thumb through her palm and up her fingers, and was aware of her every breath.
Rainbow Rowell
What did he have to mope about, really? What more did he want?...Love. Purpose. Those are the things that you can't plan for. Those are the things that just happen. And what if they don't happen? Do you spend your whole life pining for them? Waiting to be happy?

Rainbow Rowell
He tried to remember how this happened – how she went from someone he’d never met to the only one who mattered.
Rainbow Rowell
Eleanor was right. She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn't supposed to look nice it was supposed to make you feel something.
Rainbow Rowell
So...I'm larking through the Baby Gap, looking at tiny capri pants and sweaters that cost more than ... I don't know,more than they should. And I get totally sucked in by this ridiculous, tiny fur coat. The kind of coat a baby might need to go to the ballet. In Moscow. In 1918. To match her tiny pearls.
Rainbow Rowell
Until this moment, she’d kept Park in a place in her head that she thought Richie couldn't get to. Completely separate from this house and everything that happened here. (It was a pretty awesome place. Like the only part of her head fit for praying.)
Rainbow Rowell
Maybe he was Filipino. Was that in Asia? Probably. Asia's out-of-control huge.
Rainbow Rowell
She wanted to lose herself in him. To tie his arms around her like a tourniquet. If she showed him how much she needed him, he'd run away.

Have you ever heard sculptors say that they don’t actually sculpt an object they sculpt away everything that isn’t the object?
Rainbow Rowell
I like your glasses,” he said. “I like your Simon Snow T-shirts. I like that you don’t smile at everyone, because then, when you smile at me.… Cather.
Rainbow Rowell
You know, he said, I keep wanting to say that it's like Simon Snow threw up in here... but it's more like someone else ate Simon Snow—like somebody went to an all-you-care-to-eat Simon Snow buffet—and then threw up in here.
