Lauren Oliver Quotes

When you love someone, when you care for someone, you have to do it through the good and the bad. Not just when you’re happy and it’s easy Picture Quote #1

But maybe happiness isn’t in the choosing. Maybe it’s in the fiction, in the pretending: that wherever we have ended up is where we intended to be all along Picture Quote #1

One of the things I’ve tried to do in my career is really write different kinds of books, so I’m able to broaden people’s expectations of what I’m allowed to do Picture Quote #1

With ‘Delirium,’ I had to spend time thinking about the political, social and religious structure of a different world. But it was a fun challenge Picture Quote #1

Everything ends, people move on, they don’t look back. It’s how they should be Picture Quote #1

I get that rush that comes when you know you’re doing something wrong and are getting away with it, like stealing from the school cafeteria of getting tipsy at a family holiday without anyone knowing it Picture Quote #1

And now I know why they invented words for love, why they had to: It’s the only thing that can come close to describing what I feel in that moment, the baffling mixture of pain and pleasure and fear and joy, all running sharply through me at once Picture Quote #1

Finishing books - and leaving the world you’ve created - is always a kind of emotionally wrenching experience. I usually cry Picture Quote #1

I’ve learned to get really good at this - say one thing when I’m thinking about something else, act like I’m listening when I’m not, pretend to be calm and happy when I’m really freaking out. It’s one of the skills you perfect as you get older Picture Quote #1

I often write two books simultaneously. Usually one of them starts out as a fun experiment designed to give me a daily break from the real book I’m writing. And then that becomes a real book too Picture Quote #1

Running is a mental sport, more than anything else. You’re only as good as your training, and your training is only as good as your thinking Picture Quote #1

Requiem has been controversial because people don’t feel I gave it closure Picture Quote #1

The most dangerous sicknesses are those that make us believe we are well Picture Quote #1

He who leaps for the sky may fall, it’s true. But he may also fly Picture Quote #1

If singing were a feeling it would be this, this light, this lifting, like laughing Picture Quote #1

He is my world and my world is him and without him there is no world Picture Quote #1

Rainstorms are incredible: falling shards of glass, the air full of diamonds Picture Quote #1

Everyone you trust, everyone you think you can count on, will eventually disappoint you Picture Quote #1

My heart is fluid and soaring. There’s no longer any space between heartbeats Picture Quote #1

The only thing worse than having no friends is being pitied for having no friends Picture Quote #1

Even the greatest movements on earth, have their beginnings with something small Picture Quote #1

There is so much fragility in kissing, in other people: It is all glass Picture Quote #1

It will kill me, it will kill me, it will kill me. And I don’t care Picture Quote #1

That’s the easy thing about falling: there is only one choice after that Picture Quote #1

I need to live my life in the light of their deaths. I need to live Picture Quote #1

We are all punished for the lives we have chosen, in one way or another Picture Quote #1

This is what we are made for: promises, pledges, and sworn oaths of obedience Picture Quote #1

You can build walls all the way to the sky and I will find a way to fly above them. You can try to pin me down with a hundred thousand arms, but I will find a way to resist. And there are many of us out there, more than you think. People who refuse to stop believing. People who refuse to come to earth. People who love in a world without walls, people who love into hate, into refusal, against hope, and without fear Picture Quote #1

But maybe you carried your demons with you everywhere, the way you carried your shadow Picture Quote #1

Dystopian novels help people process their fears about what the future might look like; further, they usually show that there is always hope, even in the bleakest future Picture Quote #1
