    “We stood there, looking at each other, saying nothing. But it was the kind of nothing that meant everything. In his eyes, there was no trace of what had happened between us earlier and I could feel something inside me break.
    So that was that. We were finally, finally over.
    I looked at him, and I felt so sad, because this thought occurred to me: 'I will never look at you the same way again. I'll never be that girl again. The girl who comes running back every time you push her away, the girl who loves you anyway.'
    I couldn’t even be mad at him, because this was who he was. This was who he’d
    always been. He’d never lied about that. He gave and then he took away. I felt it in the pit of my stomach, the familiar ache, that lost, regretful feeling only he could give me. I never wanted to feel it again. Never, ever.
    Maybe this was why I came, so I could really know. So I could say good-bye.
    I looked at him, and I thought, 'If I was very brave or very honest, I would tell him.'
    I would say it, so he would know it and I would know it, and I could never take it back. But I wasn’t that brave or honest, so all I did was look at him. And I think he knew anyway.
    'I release you. I evict you from my heart. Because if I don't do it now, I never will.'
    I was the one to look away first.”
    Jenny Han, It's Not Summer Without You

    Philip Pullman
    “If a coin comes down heads, that means that the possibility of its coming down tails has collapsed. Until that moment the two possibilities were equal.
    But on another world, it does come down tails. And when that happens, the two worlds split apart.”
    Philip Pullman, The Golden Compass

    Sarah Dessen
    “There are some things in this world you rely on, like a sure bet. And when they let you down, shifting from where you've carefully placed them, it shakes your faith, right where you stand.”
    Sarah Dessen, Someone Like You

    Margaret Atwood
    “There's an epigram tacked to my office bulletin board, pinched from a magazine -- "Wanting to meet an author because you like his work is like wanting to meet a duck because you like pâté.”
    Margaret Atwood , Negotiating with the Dead: A Writer on Writing

    “Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women, and the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who's confronted with it. We need equality. Kinda now.”
    Joss Whedon

    “Respect was invented to cover the empty place where love should be.”

    Bob Marley
    “You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect—you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break—her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there.”
    Bob Marley

    “When you give yourself permission to communicate what matters to you in every situation you will have peace despite rejection or disapproval. Putting a voice to your soul helps you to let go of the negative energy of fear and regret.”

    كوليت الخوري
    “أريد رجلا يحبني وهو يعلم أن الكثيرات أجمل مني وأذكى مني. رجلا يحبني لأن روحي امتزجت وروحه، ولأن أفكاري طابقت أفكاره. ولا أريد .. لا أريد رجلا يحبني لأنه بعد وضعي بالميزان اكتشف أنني أحسن من غيري!”
    كوليت خوري

    Pablo Neruda
    “ميتٌ هو من يتخلى عن مشروع قبل أن يهمّ به، ميتٌ من يخشى أن يطرح الأسئلة حول المواضيع التي يجهلها، ومن لا يجيب عندما يُسأل عن أمر يعرفه.
    ميت ٌ من يجتنب الشغف ولا يجازف باليقين في سبيل اللايقين من أجل أن يطارد أحد أحلامه”
    بابلو نيرودا

    Pablo Neruda
    “ميت هو ذاك الذي لا يقلب الطاولة ولا يسمح لنفسه ولو لمرة واحدة في حياته بالهرب من النصائح المنطقية. ذاك الذي لا يسافر ولا يقرأ ولا يصغي الى الموسيقى، ذاك الذي لا يقبل مساعدة احد ويمضي نهاراته متذمرا من سوء حظه أو من استمرار هطول المطر”
    بابلو نيرودا
