“I was supposed to be having the time of my life.” —Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

I’d taken to situating myself in one of the little lounges overlooking the mountains, and had almost read an entire book in the deep-cushioned armchair, going slowly as I learned new words. But it had filled my time—given me quiet, steadfast company with those characters, who did not exist and never would, but somehow made me feel less … alone. -ACOMAF
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet or excite you. Books help us understand who we are and how we are to behave. They show us what community and friendship mean; they show us how to live and die. Anne Lamott

The guilt of wanting to leave might kill me before I actually do. - This Is Kind of an Epic Love Story, Kheryn Callender In one aspect, yes, I believe in ghosts, but we create them. We haunt ourselves, and sometimes we do such a good job, we lose track of reality. - Wintergirls, Laurie Halse Anderson Saying the words felt like swallowing burning cigarettes, but I had to say them. - All the Ugly and Wonderful Things, Bryn Greenwood "Seninle benim gibi kadınlara hayatta yalnızca bir, tek bir marifet gereklidir, o da zaten okulda öğretilmez. Sadece tek bir hüner. O da: tahammül. Sabretmek. Katlanmak." "Neye katlanmak, Nana?" "Bak, bu konuda hiç endişen olmasın," dedi Nana. "Katlanılacak şey bulmakta hiç zorlamayacaksın. Bizim payımıza düşen işte bu, Meryem. Bizim gibi kadınların. Biz katlanırız. Tahammül ederiz. Sahip olduğumuz tek şey, bu yeteneğimizdir. Anlıyor musun?" - Bin Muhteşem Güneş, Khaled Hosseini time will either heal you or kill you so if you're reading this you are healing. - Soft Thorns, Bridgett Devoue We were penniless and homeless, but our happiness made us richer than we’d ever been. - Ren and Della, Pepper Winters A girl’s life is the worst life in the world. A girl’s life is: you are born, you bleed, you burn. - Girl In Pieces, Kathleen Glaslow
