More quotes by Stephen Chbosky
Despite everything my mom and doctor and dad have said to me about blame, I can't stop thinking what I know. And I know that my aunt Helen would still be alive today if she just bought me one present like everybody else. She would be alive if I were born on a day that didn't snow.
Stephen Chbosky
It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder? What if they need the arms or something like that? You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can't. You have to do things.
Stephen Chbosky
and for the first time in my life I understand the end of that poem. And I never wanted to. You have to believe me.
Stephen Chbosky
deep down...she's a good woman...you should be proud of her. When I told my mom about this, she just looked very sad because he could never say those things to her. Not ever. Not even when he walked her down the aisle.

There are other people who have it a lot worse
Stephen Chbosky
Why do I and everyone I love pick people who treat us like we're nothing - We accept the love we think we deserve.
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.

I think that if I ever have kids, and they are upset, I won't tell them that people are starving in China or anything like that because it wouldn't change the fact that they were upset. And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have.
Stephen Chbosky
Standing on the fringes of life... offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor.
Stephen Chbosky
You ever think Charlie, that our group is the same as any other group like a football team? And the only real difference between us is what we wear and why we wear it?
Stephen Chbosky
I don't even remember the season. I just remember walking between them and feeling for the first time that I belonged somewhere.

I wish I could stop being in love with Sam. I really do.
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
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.
Stephen Chbosky
I think on my next birthday, I'm going to buy her a present. I think that should be the tradition. The kid gets gifts from everybody, and he buys one present for his mom since she was there, too. I think that would be nice.
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
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.
Stephen Chbosky
And I never felt that good in my life. But I also felt bad because I saw her naked without her permission.
Stephen Chbosky
Movies, by nature, are not subjective, they're objective.
Stephen Chbosky
The truth is, when it gets really quiet, when the silence gets too loud, i really start to miss everyone.
