Deb Caletti Quotes

Sometimes good choices are really bad ones, wrapped up in so much fear you can’t even see straight Picture Quote #1

I finally learned that it was all right to say something wasn’t working for me when it wasn’t working. The world doesn’t come crashing down when you speak the truth Picture Quote #1

The world was large, so large. Bigger than it had been before. Family, too, a bigger word. That felt like a good thing. An essential thing. There was power in numbers Picture Quote #1

I know parental embarrassment usually stops somewhere at fifteen, but he just kept on giving me good reasons Picture Quote #1

So I put up with bad behavior in the name of loving the way I thought you were supposed to love Picture Quote #1

A drop of poison on that gathering snow. That moment in the fairy tale when we know what just happened but the princess doesn’t Picture Quote #1

Accents are funny in that they have this odd draw for us, yet we forget we have one, too. No one is without an accent, but the one you’ve got seems like oatmeal to their caviar Picture Quote #1

You take care of the people you love, but it’s true, too, that you take care of the things you own Picture Quote #1

What’s that about? Love must be more about power than we think, if even in its most intimate moment of expression we think about not being the one who risks the most Picture Quote #1

I don’t know why we insist on pain when pain is so often easy to eliminate. It’s funny the ways we try to punish ourselves when we feel we’ve committed some crime Picture Quote #1

I thought I might cry, the way you do when someone gives you some kindness when you most need it but when it seems the most surprising thing Picture Quote #1

We had lain together, skin on skin, been as close as two people could, and he was a stranger. He was that someone who you are afraid of as a child, stranger. They never told you that stranger might be someone you knew Picture Quote #1

You could care enough to keep a secret, but you could care enough to tell one, too Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you build up these walls, you build and you build and you build up these walls and you think they’re so strong, but then someone can come along and tip them over with only his fingers, or the weight of his breath Picture Quote #1

Maybe we all just want to feel special, even for a little while, to be fooled for a bit into feeling something besides the truth of our own ordinariness Picture Quote #1

Most of our parents wanted the best for us, I knew, but we also wanted the best for them Picture Quote #1

You could try and understand people, you could read books and understand words and concepts and ideas, but you could never understand enough or have enough knowledge to keep away the surprises that both fate and human beings had in store Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to say what you mean and mean what you say... Doubt in your voice is an open door people will shove right through Picture Quote #1

I didn’t walk over and talk to him, though, not then. If I needed the time for a tree branch to become just a tree branch again and the wind to become just the wind, then a boy, most of all, needed some time to be only a boy Picture Quote #1

Because words were hills and valleys you traveled, so lovely sometimes that they hurt your eyes Picture Quote #1

Because that’s how it works after something terrible has happened. You know this is true if something terrible has ever happened to you. A thousand objects take on new meaning. Everything is a reminder of something else Picture Quote #1

The most insane things can become normal if you have them around you long enough. A mind can’t seem to hold anything too crazy for too long without finding a way to make it seem normal Picture Quote #1

A person could leave you so quickly. So much history and time and memories, but they snuck away from you, and other things took their place. How could you hold on? Wait. A bigger question. The biggest. How could you hold on and let go? Picture Quote #1

She would bring you some great book because she was a book matchmaker, because she loved books the way other girls loved clothes Picture Quote #1

I don’t know why we do it. But sometimes we just swim straight for the net Picture Quote #1

This was what happened after you’d been together with someone a long time. You loved that it was old and worn and comfy, but sometimes it was old and worn and comfy Picture Quote #1

... But then again, a person could turn ugly. Their actual look could change when their actions were repulsive Picture Quote #1

You could put your confusion and upset and worries into whatever book you were reading. You could sort of set them down in there, and you could come out with your head on a little straighter. I don’t why stories worked that way, but they did Picture Quote #1

This is what happens when nice people are pushed too far. We give too many chances, and so when we’ve finally had enough, we are well and truly done. When a nice person shuts a door on you, it’s shut for good Picture Quote #1

Bliss is the ocean, a towel on the sand, the sun out, the chance to swim in waves or walk dragging a stick behind you, a good book, a cold drink Picture Quote #1
