More quotes by Rainbow Rowell
Every woman wants a man who'll fall in love with her soul as well as her body.
Rainbow Rowell
Or maybe, he thought now, he just didn't recognize all those other girls. The way a computer drive will spit out a disk if it doesn't recognize the formatting. When he touched Eleanor's hand, he recognized her. He knew.
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.
Rainbow Rowell
I don’t trust anybody. Not anybody. And the more that I care about someone, the more sure I am they’re going to get tired of me and take off.
Rainbow Rowell
I don’t just kiss people. Kisses aren’t... just with me.
Rainbow Rowell
I miss you. That's stupid, she said. I saw you this morning. It's not the time, Levi said, and she could hear that he was smiling. It's the distance.
Rainbow Rowell
You're not the ugly one. Levi Grinned. You're just the Clark Kent... ... Will you warn me when you take off your glasses?
Rainbow Rowell
You look like a protagonist.
Rainbow Rowell
I dare you to call Ask-A-Nurse and tell them you feel a presence in your womb region.
Rainbow Rowell
Cath wanted to go back and rewrite every scene she'd ever written about Baz or Simon's chests. She'd written them flat and sharp and hard. Levi was all soft motion and breath, curves and warm hollows. Levi's chest was a living thing.
Rainbow Rowell
I want everyone to meet you. You're my favorite person of all time.
Rainbow Rowell
It was like their lives were overlapping lines, like they had their own gravity. Usually, that serendipity thing felt like the nicest thing the universe had ever done for her.
Rainbow Rowell
Eggnog reminds me of mucus. Me, too. But in a good way.
Rainbow Rowell
You don’t have to be the kind of beautiful that everyone can agree on. If the right person finds you beautiful, you win. You win forever.
Rainbow Rowell
Don't bite his face, Eleanor told herself. It's disturbing and needy and never happens in situation comedies or movies that end with big kisses.
Rainbow Rowell
Months are different in college, especially freshman year. Too much happens. Every freshman month equals six regular months—they're like dog months.
Rainbow Rowell
As I moved to less and less diverse places in my life, I realized that white people dont talk about race amongst themselves!
Rainbow Rowell
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 are the chances you’d ever meet someone like that? he wondered. Someone you could love forever, someone who would forever love you back? And what did you do when that person was born half a world away? The math seemed impossible.
Rainbow Rowell
Don't make me angry-kiss you.
Rainbow Rowell
