More quotes by Stephen Chbosky
I am really in love with Sam, and it hurts very much.
Stephen Chbosky
He's a wallflower. And Bob nodded his head. And the whole room nodded their head. And i started to feel nervous in the Bob way, but Patrick didn't let me get too nervous. He sat down next to me. You see things. You keep quiet about them. And you understand.
Stephen Chbosky
Why would I care whether or not he loved me when he didn't even really know me?

Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense.
Stephen Chbosky
I can see it. This one moment when you know you’re not a sad story. You’re alive. And you stand up and see the lights and the buildings and everything that makes you wonder. And you’re listening to that song in that drive with the people you love most in this world. And in this moment I swear… we are infinite.
Stephen Chbosky
I just wish that God or my parents or Sam or my sister or someone would just tell me what's wrong with me. Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense. To make this all go away.

Stephen Chbosky
I just laid around in my bed, looking at the ceiling, and i smiled because it was a nice kind of quiet.
Stephen Chbosky
Everyone else is either asleep or having sex. I’ve been watching cable television and eating jello.
Stephen Chbosky
And she looked at me like she couldn't believe I knew she loved Anne Rice. I guess he didn't know how much she talked or how much I listened.
Stephen Chbosky
I wonder what it will be like when I leave this place.
Stephen Chbosky
All I could do is lie there and think about how much her voice changed when she asked me if she was pretty, and how much she changed when I answered.
Stephen Chbosky
Welcome to the island of misfit toys.
Stephen Chbosky
It's too bad you're not gay. Then again, if you were gay, I would never date you. You're a mess. You know, Patrick? If I were gay, I'd want to date you. Of course.
Stephen Chbosky
It’s strange how things can change back as suddenly as they changed originally. When one thing happens and suddenly, things are back to normal.
Stephen Chbosky
When I did a study of all the coming-of-age movies that meant a lot to me, whether it was 'The Graduate' or 'Rebel Without a Cause' or 'Dead Poet's Society,' they all had that timeless feel. None of them were completely married to the details of their age. They felt timeless in their treatment of it. That's what made them resonate with me.
Stephen Chbosky
And how different her face looked the first time she really liked a boy who was not on a poster on her wall. And how her face looked when she realized she was in love with that boy.
