    Machado de Assis
    “E com uma letra bem pequena, lá estava escrito no seu epitáfio: Tentou ser, não conseguiu; tentou ter, não possuiu; tentou continuar, não prosseguiu; e nessa vida de expectativas frustradas tentou até amar… Pois bem, não conseguiu, e aqui está.”
    Machado de Assis, Dom Casmurro

    Machado de Assis
    “Este último capítulo é todo de negativas. Não alcancei a celebridade do emplasto, não fui ministro, não fui califa, não conheci o casamento. Verdade é que, ao lado dessas faltas, coube-me a boa fortuna de não comprar o pão com o suor do meu rosto. Mais; não padeci a morte de D. Plácida, nem a semidemência do Quincas Borba. Somadas umas coisas e outras, qualquer pessoa imaginará que não houve míngua nem sobra, e conseguintemente que saí quite com a vida. E imaginará mal; porque ao chegar a este outro lado do mistério, achei-me com um pequeno saldo, que é a derradeira negativa deste capítulo de negativas: — Não tive filhos, não transmiti a nenhuma criatura o legado da nossa miséria.”
    Machado de Assis, Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas

    Julia Quinn
    “Love's about finding the one person who makes your heart complete. Who makes you a better person than you ever dreamed you could be. Its about looking in the eyes of your wife and knowing all the way to your bones that she's simply the best person you've ever known.”
    Julia Quinn, The Viscount Who Loved Me

    Sylvia Plath
    “I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
    Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

    Clarice Lispector
    “O que não sei dizer é mais importante do que o que eu digo.”
    Clarice Lispector

  • #6
    “Como uma criatura pautada em liberdade, digo-lhe com absoluta certeza, que não há nada mais difícil e libertador que perdoar a si mesmo.”
    Laís Lacet, Da tua Rosa

  • #7
    “Tudo em ti é benção e maldição. Cada batalha, cada cicatriz, cada erro e cada vitória. Nós somos uma mistura de erros que cometemos e acertos que desejamos cometer.”
    Laís Lacet, Da tua Rosa

  • #8
    Suzanne Collins
    “That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that.”
    Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

  • #9
    Julia Quinn
    “I love you with everything I am, everything I've been, and everything I hope to be. I love you with my past, and I love you for my future. I love you for the children we'll have and for the years we'll have together. I love you for every one of my smiles and even more, for every one of your smiles.”
    Julia quinn, Romancing Mister Bridgerton

    Jane Austen
    “I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”
    Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

    Jane Austen
    “I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.”
    Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

  • #13
    Adriana Falcão
    “Doravante queria fazer alguma coisa, mas sabia que não se pode mandar no que não quer. Querer é muito pessoal. Impetuoso. Inconsequente. Inconveniente, até, às vezes, quando sai desembestado querendo o que vê pela frente. Tão raro, por outro lado, se é um querer de verdade. Imprevisível. Dia quer, dia não quer. É um verbo de lua.”
    Adriana Falcão, Luna Clara & Apolo Onze

    Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

  • #16
    Jane Austen
    “You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged; but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.”
    Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

  • #17
    Jane Austen
    “From the very beginning— from the first moment, I may almost say— of my acquaintance with you, your manners, impressing me with the fullest belief of your arrogance, your conceit, and your selfish disdain of the feelings of others, were such as to form the groundwork of disapprobation on which succeeding events have built so immovable a dislike; and I had not known you a month before I felt that you were the last man in the world whom I could ever be prevailed on to marry.”
    Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

  • #18
    Jane Austen
    “I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle. As a child I was taught what was right, but I was not taught to correct my temper. I was given good principles, but left to follow them in pride and conceit. Unfortunately an only son (for many years an only child), I was spoilt by my parents, who, though good themselves (my father, particularly, all that was benevolent and amiable), allowed, encouraged, almost taught me to be selfish and overbearing; to care for none beyond my own family circle; to think meanly of all the rest of the world; to wish at least to think meanly of their sense and worth compared with my own. Such I was, from eight to eight and twenty; and such I might still have been but for you, dearest, loveliest Elizabeth! What do I not owe you! You taught me a lesson, hard indeed at first, but most advantageous. By you, I was properly humbled. I came to you without a doubt of my reception. You showed me how insufficient were all my pretensions to please a woman worthy of being pleased.”
    Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

  • #19
    Markus Zusak
    “She let herself love me for three minutes.
    Can three minutes last forever? I ask myself, but already know the answer.
    Probably not, I reply. But maybe they last long enough.”
    Markus Zusak, I Am the Messenger

    Jane Austen
    “There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”
    Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

    Iris Figueiredo
    “Descobri que minha força sempre esteve dentro de mim - eu só não dava muita atenção a ela. E, sempre que vejo um fusca azul, lembro que dentro dele cabem pessoas o suficiente para me estender a mão se um dia eu precisar. Isso é força.”
    Iris Figueiredo, Céu sem Estrelas

    Filipe Russo
    “Na infância eu queria uma amizade satisfatória, na adolescência eu queria um namoro satisfatório e agora eu não sonho mais com alegrias: eu quero apenas condizer comigo.”
    Filipe Russo, Caro Jovem Adulto

  • #23
    Markus Zusak
    “It's not a big thing, but I guess it's true--big things are often just small things that are noticed.”
    Markus Zusak, I Am the Messenger

  • #24
    Jill Santopolo
    “I hope you find a love like that–one that is all-consuming and powerful that makes you feel like you're going slightly mad. And if you do find that love, embrace it. Hold onto it. When you give yourself over to love like that, your heart will get bruised. It will get battered. But you will also feel invincible and infinite.”
    Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

  • #25
    Jill Santopolo
    “But you were like a drug. When I was high on you, nothing else mattered.”

    Jill Santopolo
    “We've known each other for almost half our lives.
    I've seen you smiling, confident, blissfully happy.
    I've seen you broken, wounded, lost.
    But I've never seen you like this.
    You taught me to look for beauty. In darkness, in destruction, you always found light.
    I don't know what beauty I'll find here, what light. But I'll try. I'll do it for you. Because I know you would do it for me.
    There was so much beauty in our life together.”
    Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

  • #27
    Jill Santopolo
    “I think that making yourself available means putting the relationship you're in first. Not necessarily always, but often. It means making the decision that's best for the two of you, as a unit, even if it means compromising a little individually. It means sharing everything.”
    Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

  • #28
    Jill Santopolo
    “I love you, Lucy, like hydrogen loves oxygen. A totally different kind of love. An elemental kind.”
    Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

  • #29
    Jill Santopolo
    “But what was true then, and has been true as long as I’ve known you, is that you find beauty everywhere. You notice things other people don’t. It’s something I’ve always admired about you.”
    Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

  • #30
    Jill Santopolo
    “About how you felt unmoored, like no one was connecting you to the earth anymore, like you could float away and no one would notice.”
    Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost
