More quotes by Stephen Chbosky
If you are in a movie theater, you can look two people down and they are laughing while you are laughing or you can look three people down and they love that song that you love. It is living proof that you are not alone.
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 in that moment, I swear we were infinite.
Stephen Chbosky
This moment will just be another story someday.
Stephen Chbosky
Craig said the problem with things is that everyone is always comparing everyone with everyone
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 feel like a big faker because I've been putting my life back together, and nobody knows.
Stephen Chbosky
And I closed my eyes because I wanted to know nothing but her arms.
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 the idea is that every person has to live for his or her own life and then make the choice to share it with other people. Maybe that is what makes people participate.
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.
Stephen Chbosky
It's kind of like when you look at yourself in the mirror and you say your name. And it gets to a point where none of it seems real.
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
Old pictures look very rugged and young, and the people in the photographs always seem a lot happier than you are.
Stephen Chbosky
Sam has brown hair and very, very pretty green eyes. The kind of green that doesn't make a big deal about itself.
Stephen Chbosky
The truth is, when it gets really quiet, when the silence gets too loud, i really start to miss everyone.
Stephen Chbosky
It's like looking at all the students and wondering who's had their heart broken that day, and how they are able to cope with having three quizzes and a book report on top of that.
Stephen Chbosky
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
Music is a vital part of my life, and it has been since I was a kid. It helped me find my identity as a person, it helped me find my identity as an artist, and it helped me get in touch with emotions that I didn't know I had.
Stephen Chbosky
Maybe it’s sad that these are now memories. And maybe it’s not sad.
Stephen Chbosky
