Quotes by Amber Dermont (?)

“That's what Cal would tell you about me. "Jason's the nice one," he'd say. "He'd give you all his stars.”
― Amber Dermont, The Starboard Sea

“We should make up our own phrase," I suggested. "Add our own contribution to nautical lore."

Cal thought about it for a while and then said, "How about, the starboard sea?"

"What?" I asked. "Like the sea on the right side of the boat? That doesn't mean anything."

"No," Cal insisted, "it means the right sea, the true sea, or like finding the best path in life. It's deep. I'm telling you, it's going to catch on. By this time next year, everyone will be using it.”
― Amber Dermont, The Starboard Sea

“I used to believe having a good memory meant being able to remember everything in perfect detail. Now I believe having a good memory means being able to selectively forget. It's not what I'll remember, Jason," he said. "It's what I'll forget that matters.”
― Amber Dermont, The Starboard Sea
