Lauren Oliver Quotes

I used to think that’s what love was: knowing someone so well he was like a part of you 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

How is it possible, I think, to change so much and not be able to change anything at all? Picture Quote #1

Here’s another thing to remember: hope keeps you alive. Even when you’re dead, it’s the only thing that keeps you alive Picture Quote #1

And I guess that’s when it starts to hit me: the whole point is, you do what you can Picture Quote #1

A good friend keeps your secrets for you. A best friend helps you keep your own secrets Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I’m afraid to go to sleep because of what I’m leaving behind Picture Quote #1

A room full of words that are nearly the truth but not quite, each note fluttering off the steam of its rose like a broken butterfly wing Picture Quote #1

Time and space recede and blast away like a universe expanding forever outward, and leaving only darkness and the two of us on its periphery, darkness and breathing and touch Picture Quote #1

It’s so strange how life works: You want something and you wait and wait and feel like it’s taking forever to come. Then it happens and it’s over and all you want to do is curl back up in that moment before things changed 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

And it’s the funniest thing: as soon as I see it, the whistling in my ears stops and the feeling of terror drains away, and I realize this whole time I haven’t been falling at all. I’ve been floating Picture Quote #1

It’s funny how you can know your friends so well, but you still end up playing the same games with them Picture Quote #1

I’ve been so used to thinking of what the borders are keeping out that I haven’t considered that they’re also penning us in Picture Quote #1

The deadliest of all deadly things: It kills you both when you have it and when you don’t Picture Quote #1

Snapshots, moments, mere seconds: as fragile and beautiful and hopeless as a single butterfly, flapping on against a gathering wind Picture Quote #1

I guess that’s just part of loving people: You have to give things up. Sometimes you even have to give them up Picture Quote #1

It occurs to me that for a long time she has been doing her own version of resisting Picture Quote #1

It’s like a razor blade edging its way through my organs, shredding me, all I can think is: It will kill me, it will kill me, it will kill me. And I don’t care Picture Quote #1

That’s the thing about best friends. That’s what they do. They keep you from spinning off the edge Picture Quote #1

The past is nothing but a weight. It will build inside of you like a stone Picture Quote #1

Human beings, in their natural state, are unpredictable, erratic, and unhappy. It is only once their animal instincts are controlled that they can be responsible, dependable, and content Picture Quote #1

I hate skin; I hate bones and bodies. I want to curl up inside of him and be carried there forever Picture Quote #1

Now I’d rather be infected with love for the tiniest sliver of a second than live a hundred years smothered by a lie Picture Quote #1

I suppose that’s the secret, if you’re ever wishing for things to back the way they were. You just have to look up Picture Quote #1

I think of all the thousands of billions of steps and missteps and chances and coincidences that have brought me here. Brought you here, and it feels like the biggest miracle in the world Picture Quote #1

I feel like a curtain has dropped away and I’m seeing people for who they really are, different, and sharp, and unknowable Picture Quote #1
