“Gli attimi, una volta persi, non si ritrovano più. Sono persi per sempre.”

“I still don't think it's pathetic to cry over someone. It just means you care about them deeply and you're sad.”

“I used to believe. I used to think that if I wanted it bad enough, wished hard enough, everything would work out the way It was supposed to. Destiny, like Susannah said.”

“Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer”

“Relationships are incredibly amorphous. They could get back together. They could stay friends. Who's to say what will happen in the future?”

“All night, I talked to other people. I didn't look in his direction, but I always knew where he was. I was painfully aware of him. When he was nearby, my body hummed. When he was away, there was this dull ache. With him near, I felt everything.”

“I need you to know that no matter what happens, it was worth it to me. Being with you, loving you. It was all worth it.”

“And then there was Jeremiah. When I looked at Jeremiah, I saw past, present, and future. He didn’t just know the girl I used to be. He knew the right-now me, and he loved me anyway.”

“I won’t be the reason you don’t go to him. I won’t be your excuse. You’ve got to see for yourself, or you’l never be able to let him go

Jeremiah Fisher”

“In memory, everything seems to happen to music.”

“If this is love, no thanks. I don’t want any part of it. When I’m older, I’m just going to do my own thing. If I like a boy, fine, I’ll date him, but I’m not going to sit at home and cry over him. I cry over important things.”

“But what now? What am I supposed to do with all these feelings?”

“The first time I saw him again, it was another year, at my college graduation. And I just knew.”

“It was over before I even had a chance.”

“Firsts were important. But I was pretty sure lasts were even more important.”

“Things weren’t the same with us, not right away, and maybe not ever. We were growing up. We were still figuring out how to be in each other’s lives without being everything to each other.”

“In his eyes, there was no trace of what had happened earlier, and I could feel something inside me break. So that was that. We were finally, finally over.”

“On the day of his mother’s funeral, to the boy I loved more than I had ever loved
anything or anyone, I said, “Go to hell.”

“Real isn’t how you are made,” said the Skin Horse. “It’s a thing that happens to you.” “Does it hurt?” asked the Rabbit. “Sometimes,” said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. “When you are Real you don’t mind being hurt.” —MARGERY WILLIAMS”

“Is this how it goes? You fall in love, and nothing seems truly scary anymore, and life is one big possibility?”

“What must it be like, to have a boy like you so much he cries for you?”

“Gone had come to mean something different, in a way that is hadn’t used to. Something permanent.”

“It will get easier each time, I think. I hope. I just have to keep trying.”

“There are moments in every girl’s life that are bigger than we know at the time. When you look back, you say, that was one of those life-changing,
fork-in-the-road moments and I didn’t even see it coming. I had no idea.”

“Sometimes questions can be more cruel than insults”

“Because sometimes you just feel sad and you can't explain it.”

“Peter smiles, and ugh, it's annoying how handsome he is.”

“What now?”
Conrad didn’t let me off the hook that easy. He said, “What now with you and Jeremiah or with you and me?”

“To belong to someone—I didn’t know it, but now that I think about, it seems like that’s all I’ve ever wanted. To really be somebody’s, and to have them be mine.”

“He looks at me in such a way that I know for sure-he's never looked at another girl quite like this.
And the I'm in his arms, and we're hugging and kissing, and we're both shaking, because we both know-this is the night we become real.”
