    Cassandra Clare
    “Well, when I was five, I wanted my mother to let me go around and around inside a dryer with the clothes,” Clary said. “The difference is, she didn’t let me.”
    “Probably because going around and around in a dryer can be fatal,” Jace pointed out, “whereas pasta is rarely fatal. Unless Isabelle makes it.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

    “You don't think I can fight." Tessa said, drawing back and matching his silvery gaze with her own. "Because I'm a girl."
    "I don't think you can fight because you're wearing a wedding dress", said Jem. "For what it's worth, I don't think Will could fight in that dress either."

    John  Green
    “It's just that most really good-looking people are stupid, so I exceed expectations.'
    'Right, it's primarily his hotness,' I said.
    'It can be sort of blinding,' he said.
    'It actually did blind our friend Isaac,' I said.
    'Terrible tragedy, that. But can I help my own deadly beauty?'
    'You cannot.'
    'It is my burden, this beautiful face.'
    'Not to mention your body.'
    'Seriously, don't even get me started on my hot bod. You don't want to see me naked, Dave. Seeing me naked actually took Hazel Grace's breath away,' he said, nodding toward the oxygen tank.”
    John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

    John  Green
    “Augustus Waters was a self-aggrandizing bastard. But we forgive him. We forgive him not because he had a heart as figuratively good as his literal one sucked, or because he knew more about how to hold a cigarette than any nonsmoker in history, or because he got eighteen years when he should've gotten more.'
    'Seventeen,' Gus corrected.
    'I'm assuming you've got some time, you interupting bastard.
    'I'm telling you,' Isaac continued, 'Augustus Waters talked so much that he'd interupt you at his own funeral. And he was pretentious: Sweet Jesus Christ, that kid never took a piss without pondering the abundant metaphorical resonances of human waste production. And he was vain: I do not believe I have ever met a more physically attractive person who was more acutely aware of his own physical attractiveness.
    'But I will say this: When the scientists of the future show up at my house with robot eyes and they tell me to try them on, I will tell the scientists to screw off, because I do not want to see a world without him.'
    I was kind of crying by then.”
    John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

    Lauren Oliver
    “And now I realize Lindsay's not fearless. She's terrified. She's terrified that people will find out she's faking, bullshitting her way through life, pretending to have everything together when really she's just floundering like the rest of us. Lindsay, who will bite at you if you even look in her direction the wrong way, like on of those tiny attack dogs that are always barking and snapping in the air before they're jerked backward on the chains that keep them in one place.”
    Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

    “What are the chances you’d ever meet someone like that? he wondered. Someone you could love forever, someone who would forever love you back? And what did you do when that person was born half a world away? The math seemed impossible.”

    Rainbow Rowell
    “I don't like you, Park," she said, sounding for a second like she actually meant it. "I..." - her voice nearly disappeared - "think I live for you."
    He closed his eyes and pressed his head back into his pillow.
    "I don't think I even breathe when we're not together," she whispered. "Which means, when I see you on Monday morning, it's been like sixty hours since I've taken a breath. That's probably why I'm so crabby, and why I snap at you. All I do when we're apart is think about you, and all I do when we're together is panic. Because every second feels so important. And because I'm so out of control, I can't help myself. I'm not even mine anymore, I'm yours, and what if you decide that you don't want me? How could you want me like I want you?"
    He was quiet. He wanted everything she'd just said to be the last thing he heard. He wanted to fall asleep with 'I want you' in his ears.”
    Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

    Rainbow Rowell
    “Nothing before you counts," he said. "And I can't even imagine an after."

    She shook her head. "Don't."

    "What?"

    "Don't talk about after."

    "I just meant that... I want to be the last person who ever kisses you, too.... That sounds bad, like a death threat or something. What I'm trying to say is, you're it. This is it for me.”
    Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

    Rainbow Rowell
    “What do you want to show me?"

    "Nothing, really. I just want to be alone with you for a minute."

    He pulled her to the back of the driveway, where they were almost completely hidden by a line of trees and the RV and the garage.

    "Seriously?" she said. "That was so lame."

    "I know," he said, turning to her. "Next time, I'll just say, 'Eleanor, follow me down this dark alley, I want to kiss you.'"

    She didn't roll her eyes. She took a breath, then closed her mouth. He was learning how to catch her off guard.

    She pushed her hands deeper in her pockets, so he put his hands on her elbows. "Next time," he said, "I'll just say, 'Eleanor, duck behind these bushes with me, I'm going to lose my mind if I don't kiss you.'"

    She didn't move, so he thought it was probably okay to touch her face. Her skin was as soft as it looked, white and smooth as freckled porcelain.

    "I'll just say, 'Eleanor, follow me down this rabbit hole...'"

    He laid his thumb on her lips to see if she'd pull away. She didn't. He leaned closer. He wanted to close his eyes, but he didn't trust her not to leave him standing there.”
    Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

    “Damn, damn, damn," she said. "I never said why I like you, and now I have to go."
    "That's okay," he said.
    "It's because you're kind," she said. "And because you get all my jokes..."
    "Okay." He laughed.
    "And you're smarter than I am."
    "I am not."
    "And you look like a protagonist." She was talking as fast as she could think. "You look like the person who wins in the end. You're so pretty, and so good. You have magic eyes," she whispered. "And you make me feel like a cannibal."
    "You're crazy."
    "I have to go." She leaned over so the receiver was close to the base.
    "Eleanor - wait," Park said. She could hear her dad in the kitchen and her heartbeat everywhere.
    "Eleanor - wait - I love you.”
    Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

    “You saved me life, she tried to tell him. Not forever, not for good. Probably just temporarily. But you saved my life, and now I'm yours. The me that's me right now is yours. Always.”
