More quotes by Sarah Dessen
But against love, the case was solid. Easily argued. And you could, indeed, hold it in your hand.
Sarah Dessen
I think if you're going to show a true representation of any one life, it can't be about any one thing. I try to see more of a full picture, with the romance just a single part.

I always wrote about girls that went to the beach and had that summer that changed everything. So I was interested in what it would be like to live in a tourist town where everyone has these life changing experiences, but your whole life is there.
Sarah Dessen
It was hard to remember what the yard had looked like even twelve hours before, undisturbed and pristine. Like it takes so little to change something, but to make you forget the way it once was, as well.

You know, I think I knew you for about three weeks before I ever really saw you smile.

I spent a lot of time looking at that picture. Wondering what I’d think of that girl, if I was someone else, seeing how easily she sits in her boyfriend’s lap, laughing, with his arms around her. I would have thought her life was perfect, the way I once thought Cass’s was. It was too easy, I was learning, to just assume things.
Sarah Dessen
Please. She sighed. 'Can't a girl have high standards? I don't want an ordinary boy.
Sarah Dessen
It's always very pure, that last moment before an ugly, unsettling truth hits someone. The most stark of before-and-afters.
Sarah Dessen
I feel like Twitter was tailor-made for me, because I can do short spurts all day long. I loved my blog, but doing daily, then thrice weekly entries was really time consuming. 140 characters is perfect.

funny how a beautiful song could tell such a sad story
Sarah Dessen
I looked down again at the sign in my hand - ENJOY THE RIDE! - and it seemed, suddenly, to be just that. A sign.
Sarah Dessen
In midair, dangling lost above the world.
Sarah Dessen
This Lullaby is only a few words, a simple run of chords, quiet here in this spare room, but you can hear it, hear it, wherever you may go, even if I let you down, this lullaby plays on.
Sarah Dessen
You can't make any one person your world. The trick is to take what each can give you and build a world from it.
