More quotes by Stephen Chbosky
I was looking at the photographs and I started thinking that there was a time when these weren't memories.
Stephen Chbosky
I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for thousands of years. Or just not exist.
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
Do you know what 'masturbation' is? I think you probably do because you are older than me. But just in case, I will tell you. Masturbation is when you rub your genitals until you have an orgasm. Wow!
Stephen Chbosky
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.
Stephen Chbosky
It's strange because sometimes, I read a book, and I think I am the people in the book.
Stephen Chbosky
It's just that I don't want to be somebody's crush. If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don't want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it too.
Stephen Chbosky
I really do love my sister. Especially when she's nice.
Stephen Chbosky
Girls are weird, and I don't mean that offensively. I just can't put it any other way.
Stephen Chbosky
They just knew. And I think that's all you can ever ask from a friend.
Stephen Chbosky
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
So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them.
Stephen Chbosky
I guess I'm pretty emotional.
Stephen Chbosky
I just think it's bad when a boy looks at a girl and thinks that the way he sees her is better than she actually is. And I think it's bad when the most honest way a boy can look at a girl is through a camera.
Stephen Chbosky
I wonder what it will be like when I leave this place.
Stephen Chbosky
And things were back to normal except we were just friends.
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
She wasn't bitter. She was sad, though. But it was a hopeful kind of sad. The kind of sad that just takes time.
Stephen Chbosky
It's strange the times people choose to be generous.
Stephen Chbosky
Do you enjoy holidays with your family? I don't mean your mom and dad family, but your uncle and aunt and cousin family? Personally, I do. There are several reasons for this. First, I am very interested and fascinated by how everyone loves each other, but no one really likes each other. Second, the fights are always the same.
Stephen Chbosky
