More quotes by Sarah Dessen
You could just tell when a person belonged somewhere. That is something you can't fake, no matter how hard you try
Sarah Dessen
Maybe, you just misplaced it, you know? It's been there. But you just haven't been looking in the right spot. Because lost means forever, it's gone. But misplaced... that means it's still around, somewhere. Just not where you thought.
Sarah Dessen
Needing was so easy: it came naturally, like breathing. Being needed by someone else, though, that was the hard part. But as with giving help and accepting it, we had to do both to be made complete-like links overlapping to form a chain, or a lock finding the right key.
Sarah Dessen
The world is speaking to you every day, you just don't know how to listen.

I just do the best I can under the circumstances.
Sarah Dessen
Don't think or judge, just listen.

Morning would come before we knew it. It always did. But we still had the night, and for now, we were together, so I just closed my eyes and drank it all in.
Sarah Dessen
It was as familiar to me as a song I'd been hearing my whole life, covered by various people but the basic tune the same.

The mistakes you make now count. Not for everything, and not forever. But they do matter, and they shape you.If you take nothing else from what I've been through, at least remember this: make your choices well. Because you'll always be accountable for them. That's what being an adult is all about.
Sarah Dessen
Grief can be a burden, but also an anchor. You get used to the weight, how it holds you in place.
Sarah Dessen
It's a choice, Annabel. And if you make the wrong one, you have only yourself to blame when there are consequences.
Sarah Dessen
The further you go, the more you have to be proud of. At the same time, in order to come a long way, you have to be behind to begin with. IN the end, though maybe it's not how you reach a place that matters. Just that you get there at all.
Sarah Dessen
It wasn't about being happy or unhappy. I just didn't want to be me anymore.
Sarah Dessen
Told you. Everything sounds better in the car wash.
Sarah Dessen
I've given lots of people chances. But there's only so much faith you can have in people.
Sarah Dessen
The truth was, I wasn't sure. But I wanted to keep believing people could change, and it was certainly easier to do so when you were in the midst of it.
Sarah Dessen
The thing is I'm a great believer in the perfect moment. They don't come around that often.
Sarah Dessen
I don't believe in failure, because simply by saying you've failed, you've admitted you attempted. And anyone who attempts is not a failure. Those who truly fail in my eyes are the ones who never try at all. The ones who sit on the couch and whine and moan and wait for the world to change for them.
Sarah Dessen
I think part of the problem sometimes is that there's so much happening in my books, to whittle it down into a single script is hard.
Sarah Dessen
Self respect, Colie. If you don't have it, the world will walk all over you.
