Lauren DeStefano Quotes

There’s a limit to how much living can be done in a life without freedom Picture Quote #1

Ah, love. That’s what the world has lost. There’s no more love, only the illusion of it Picture Quote #1

It is the face of a girl who has seen the world, who realizes that it hates her, and who hates it in return Picture Quote #1

Living in a place like this, she must have learned how to see all the monsters that can hide a person Picture Quote #1

You have a way of looking at things. You make it seem as though everything’s going to be okay. I can’t imagine a more dangerous thing to have than hope like yours Picture Quote #1

I start trying to stay unconscious. The problem with this is that no amount of willpower can change the reality Picture Quote #1

Maybe it is desperation. Maybe we can’t let things fall apart without trying. We can’t let go of the people we love Picture Quote #1

Her mind is a bird that’s trapped inside her skull, flapping and thrashing, never breaking free Picture Quote #1

The thing about hope is that it doesn’t go away even when it serves no purpose Picture Quote #1

Bet you never eat, he says. Bet you drink up the oxygen like it’s butter. Bet you can go for days on nothing but thoughts Picture Quote #1

She’s been conned, ruined, left for dead, and she’s not going to forgive any of it. She will soldier on, if only out of spite Picture Quote #1

I like the idea of something greater than us. We destroy things with our curiosity. We shatter with our best intentions. We are no closer to perfection than we were one hundred years ago, or five hundred Picture Quote #1

Maybe hope isn’t the most dangerous thing a person can have. Maybe love is Picture Quote #1

I think humans have always been desperate. I think it has always been about doing something awful if it might help, when the only other option is death. Maybe that’s what being a parent is supposed to feel like Picture Quote #1

Hope, that risky, illustrious thing. It should have gone extinct by now, but we keep it alive Picture Quote #1

There is a dark place calling to me, but I will not go just yet. I know I can’t return from it Picture Quote #1

I think she’s brave. I think that nobody has ever believed what she could be capable of. All her life, nobody was listening Picture Quote #1

There are so many of us, so many girls. The world wants us for our wombs or our bodies, or it doesn’t want us at all Picture Quote #1

It taught that there are three versions of things: the one I see in my mind, and the one that carries onto the paper, and then what it ultimately becomes Picture Quote #1

There is no choice for him but to believe. He has nothing left to give in offering Picture Quote #1

So many of the things I’ve wanted are the things I’ve been taught to fear Picture Quote #1

Maybe what frightens us about the edge isn’t our fear of morality, but the thoughts it leads us to have Picture Quote #1

Every star has been set in the sky. We mistakenly think they were put there for us Picture Quote #1

Time was our very first king. We all live our lives to the aggressive ticking of the clock. We don’t question that our lives are a grid of seconds; even our pulses oblige. No succeeding king can hope to hold this kind of power Picture Quote #1

I stare at her collarbone that’s framed with lace, the hollow of her throat, her shoulders that rise with each rise with the weight of her next breath. We’re fragile things. Our bones show through our skin. What would any God want with us? Picture Quote #1

I had this feeling like the solution to everything would be down there if only I could dig through all those clouds Picture Quote #1

Forget who you are and what you think is there, and you’ll discover things that don’t exist to be known Picture Quote #1

I want to make a world more magical than my own. I don’t care if it makes sense, I don’t care if it’s ridiculed or if, rather than a neat round planet that goes around forever, it ends with a cliff that falls off into nothing. I want to have my eyes wide open, and I want to see this room and at the same time, not this room Picture Quote #1

He kissed back, all the pages spread out around us like riddles waiting to be solved. Let them wait. Let my genes unravel, my hinges come loose. If my fate rests in the hands of a madman, let death come and bring its worse. I’ll take the ruined craters of laboratories, the dead trees, this city with ashes in the oxygen, if it means freedom. I’d sooner die here than live a hundred years with wires in my veins Picture Quote #1

We’ll squeeze every second that we can from our lives, because we’re young, and we have plenty of years to grow. We’ll grow until we’re braver. We’ll grow until our bones ache and our skin wrinkles and our hair goes white, and until our hearts decide, at last, that it’s time to stop Picture Quote #1
