We make patterns, we share moments Picture Quote #1

Every seven years our bodies change, every cell. Every seven years, we disappear Picture Quote #1

Hold my hand. Don’t let go Picture Quote #1

Moments. All gathering towards this one Picture Quote #1

Do you want this to be a love story? Picture Quote #1

I love you. I love you. I send this message through my fingers and into his, up his arm and into his heart. Hear me. I love you. And I’m sorry to leave you Picture Quote #1

Three points for the dead slowly prising open the lids of their coffins. They want to hunt the living. They can’t stop. Their throats have turned to liquid and their fingers glint under the weak autumn sun Picture Quote #1

I want to die in my own way. It’s my illness, my death, my choice. This is what saying yes means Picture Quote #1

We make patterns, we share moments. Sometimes, I think I’m the only one to see it Picture Quote #1

It’s as if a child with a brush and too much enthusiasm has been set free with a tin of black paint inside me Picture Quote #1

I love you. It hurts more than anything ever has, but I do. So don’t you dare tell me I don’t. Don’t you ever say it again! Picture Quote #1

Adam strokes my head, my face, he kisses my tears. We are blessed. Let them all go. The sound of a bird flying low across the garden. Then nothing. Nothing. A cloud passes. Nothing again. Light falls through the window, falls onto me, into me. Moments. All gathering towards this one Picture Quote #1

A little bird moves a mountain of sand one grain at a time it picks up one grain every million years and when the mountain has been moved the bird puts it all back again and that’s how long eternity is and that’s a very long time to be dead Picture Quote #1

And now he’s down this for me. He’s made me famous. He’s put my name on the world Picture Quote #1

I wish I had a boyfriend. I wish he lived in the wardrobe on a coat hanger. Whenever I wanted, I could get him out and he’d look at me the way boys do in films, as if I’m beautiful Picture Quote #1

I imagine horses in the engine, their manes flying, their breaths steaming, their nostrils flaring as they gallop Picture Quote #1

She’d never in her whole life bunked school, smoked dope, or kissed a boy whose name she didn’t know, and yet in the last few days, she’d done all these things Picture Quote #1

All I know is that I have two choices – stay wrapped in blankets and get on with dying, or get the list back together and get on with living Picture Quote #1

It’s really going to happen. I really won’t ever go back to school. Not ever. I’ll never be famous or leave anything worthwhile behind. I’ll never go to college or have a job. I won’t see my brother grow up. I won’t travel, never earn money, never drive, never fall in love or leave home or get my own house. It’s really, really true. A thought stabs up, growing from my toes and ripping through me, until it stifles everything else and becomes the only thing I’m thinking. It fills me up like a silent scream Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to be a cat. Warm and domesticated when you want to be, wild when you don’t Picture Quote #1

If I learnt anything at all about terminal illness in my research, it’s that the experience is different for everyone. I do believe that life becomes concentrated when it’s boundaried and that death is the biggest boundary of all Picture Quote #1

Nurses never tell you what they know. They’re hired for their cheeriness and the thickness of their hair. They need to look alive and healthy, to give the patients something to aim for Picture Quote #1

Life is made up of a series of moments, each one a journey to the end Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to go into a fridge at an undertaker’s. I want you to keep me at home until the funeral. Please can someone sit with me in case I get lonely? I promise not to scare you Picture Quote #1

Sometimes if you want something badly enough, you can make it happen. If you miss someone so desperately that it wrecks your insides, you say their name over and over until you conjure then. It’s called sympathetic magic and you just have to believe in it to make it work Picture Quote #1
