Lauren Oliver Quotes

The Story of Solomon is the only way I know how to explain. And then, in smaller letters: Forgive me Picture Quote #1

All of you, wherever you are: in your spiny cities, or your one-bump towns. Find it, the hard stuff, the links of metal and chink, the fragments of stone filling your stomach. And pull, and pull, and pull. I will make a pact with you: I will do it if you will do it, always and forever. Take down the walls Picture Quote #1

Let me tell you something about dying: it’s not as bad as they says. it’s the coming-back-to-life part that hurts Picture Quote #1

That’s what it was like waking up in the crypts. no-longer-dead. but without her. like burning alive Picture Quote #1

Direction, like time, is a general thing, the deprived of boundaries and borders. It is an endless process interception and reinterception, doubling back and adjusting Picture Quote #1

Amor deliria nervosa isn’t a disease of love. It’s a disease of selfishness Picture Quote #1

Most of us won’t see one another after graduation, and even if we do it will be different. We’ll be different. We’ll be adults--cured, tagged and labeled and paired and identified and placed neatly on our life path, perfectly round marbles set to roll down even, well-defined slopes Picture Quote #1

The rules of Panic are simple. Anyone can enter. But only one person will win Picture Quote #1

I think all artists are only interested in a couple of themes, really. I’m primarily interested in change and connection as being this restorative force. I write about them because that’s what I think about in my own life Picture Quote #1

There are times I wish I was more conventional. I would get a husband and a baby and a big SUV in the ‘burbs and be happy. But forging my own way - my career, my relationships with wonderful but troubled people - that’s who I am Picture Quote #1

But that’s the problem with love - it acts on you, works through you, resists your attempts to control Picture Quote #1

But how could anyone who’s ever seen a summer - big explosion of green and skies lit up electric with splashy sunsets, a riot of flowers and wind that smells like honey - pick the snow? Picture Quote #1

We all need mantras, I guess - stories we tell ourselves to keep us going Picture Quote #1

And even though I’m standing in the middle of the biggest crowd I’ve ever seen in my life, I suddenly feel very alone Picture Quote #1

And you should hear the music. Incredible, amazing music, like nothing you’ve ever heard, music that almost takes your head off, you know? That makes you want to scream and jump up and down and break stuff and cry Picture Quote #1

It’s amazing how close I have been, all this time, to my old life. And yet the distance that divides me from it is vast Picture Quote #1

...if you are one tardy away from missing out on a big competition, you should probably make your coffee at home Picture Quote #1

For the first time in my life I’ve done something for me and by choice and not because somebody told me it was good or bad Picture Quote #1

I didn’t realize then what a privilege that was: to be bored with your best friend; to have time to waste Picture Quote #1

Everyone is asleep. They’ve all been asleep for years. You seemed ... awake.’ Alex is whispering now. He closes his eyes, opens them again.’I’m tired of sleeping Picture Quote #1

Love: a single word, a wispy thing, a word no bigger or longer than an edge. That’s what it is: an edge; a razor. It draws up through the center of your life, cutting everything in two. Before and after. The rest of the world falls away on either side Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, isn’t it? When you are young you just want to be old, and then later you wish you could go back to being a kid Picture Quote #1

It’s not my fault I can’t be like you, okay? I don’t get up in the morning thinking the world is one big, shiny, happy place, okay? That’s just not how I work. I don’t think I can be fixed Picture Quote #1

Be honest: Are you surprised that I didn’t realize sooner? Are you surprised that it took me so long to even /think/ the word -- death? Dying? Dead? Do you think I was being stupid? Naive? Try not to judge. Remember that we’re the same, you and me. I thought I would live forever too Picture Quote #1

When we get out of highschool we’ll look back and know we did everything right, that we kissed the cutest boys and went to the best parties, got in just enough trouble, listened to our music too loud, smoked too many cigarettes, and drank too much and laughed too much and listened too little, or not al all Picture Quote #1

Most of the time one night blends into the next and weeks blend into weeks and months into other months. And sooner or later we all die. But at the beginning of the night anything’s possible Picture Quote #1

I wonder if this is how people always get close: They heal each other’s wounds; they repair the broken skin Picture Quote #1

My heart shoots into my throat every time I think I see his loping walk, or catch sight of some floppy brown hair on a boy - but it’s never him, and each time it isn’t, my heart does a reverse trajectory down into the very pit of my stomach Picture Quote #1

The reason you can never go home again isn’t necessarily that places change, but people do. So nothing ever looks the same Picture Quote #1

It’s too late. I’ve seen things...I’ve lost things you can’t understand Picture Quote #1
