More quotes by Stephen Chbosky
Maybe these are my glory days, and I'm not ever realizing it because they involve a ball.
Stephen Chbosky
I know that things get worse before they get better because that’s what my psychiatrist says, but this is a worse that feels too big.
Stephen Chbosky
Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn't stop for anybody.
Stephen Chbosky
I wish I knew. It might make me miss him more clearly. It might have made sad sense.

The gift from my Secret Santa wasn't anything special. That makes me sad. I bet you anything that Mary Elizabeth is my Secret Santa because only she would give me socks.

I look at people holdings hands in the hallways, and I try to think how it all works. At the school dances, I sit in the background, and I tap my toe, and I wonder how many couples will dance to ‘their song.’ In the hallways, I see the girls wearing the guys’ jackets, and I think about the idea of property. And I wonder if anyone is really happy.

I remembered this one time that I never told anybody about. The time we were walking. Just the three of us. I was in the middle. I don't remember where we were walking to or where we were walking from. I just remember the season. I just remember walking between them and feeling for the first time that I belonged somewhere
Stephen Chbosky

Stephen Chbosky
I couldn't believe Sam actually got me a present because i honestly thought the I love you was it.
Stephen Chbosky
It's strange to describe reading a book as a really great experience, but that's kind of how it felt.
Stephen Chbosky
I've never understood the need people have to dictate morality to other people. I really don't know what it is. I don't know if it's fear or the belief that they know the only right way. Or maybe they see a lot of social ills and social decline, and they really think they have the elixir for it.
Stephen Chbosky
I was in my bed trying to figure out why sometimes you can wake up and go back to sleep and other times you can't
Stephen Chbosky
I just hope I remember to tell my kids that they are as happy as I look in my old photographs. And I hope that they believe me.
Stephen Chbosky
Movies, by nature, are not subjective, they're objective.
Stephen Chbosky
Some kids look at me strange in the hallways because I don't decorate my locker.
Stephen Chbosky
Enjoy it. Because it's happening.
Stephen Chbosky
That was always my hope that that is exactly what I would do. It was always part of the dream of this story - to write the novel and then direct the movie.
Stephen Chbosky
I guess when you see somebody in the hallway or on the field or something, it's nice to know that they are a real person.
Stephen Chbosky
