More quotes by 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
Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense.

Everyone else is either asleep or having sex. I’ve been watching cable television and eating jello.
Stephen Chbosky
but my dad said it was no excuse. But I love him! I had never seen my sister cry that much. No, you don't. I hate you! No, you don't. My dad can be very calm sometimes. He's my whole world. Don't ever say that about anyone again. Not even me. That was my mom.
Stephen Chbosky

I want to be an author/director and I'm writing my second book now and I want to make a movie of it, and I hope I get to do this for the rest of my life.

And I guess I realized at that moment that I really did love her. Because there was nothing to gain, and that didn't matter.
