Stephen Chbosky
But in that moment when my brother took the field, all that washed away, and everyone was proud... I looked up at my dad, and he was smiling. I looked at my mom, and she was smiling even though she was nervous about my brother getting hurt, which was strange because it was a VCR tape of an old game, and she knew he didn't get hurt.
Stephen Chbosky
And in that moment, I swear we were infinite.
Stephen Chbosky
I didn't know that other people thought things about me. I didn't know that they looked.
Stephen Chbosky
So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them.
