    Haruki Murakami
    “I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. I knew this was going to happen. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I should be, but I’m not. I just feel pain. A lot of pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong.”
    Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun

    W. Somerset Maugham
    “How can I be reasonable? To me our love was everything and you were my whole life. It is not very pleasant to realize that to you it was only an episode.”
    W. Somerset Maugham, The Painted Veil

    Kristan Higgins
    “You asked why I couldn't forgive you," Nick said, very quietly, and I jumped a little. "It was because you were the love of my life, Harper. And you didn't want to be. That's hard to let go.”
    Kristan Higgins, My One and Only

    Coco J. Ginger
    “Sometimes you want to say, “I love you, but…”
    Yet the “but” takes away the ‘I love you’. In love their are no ‘buts’ or ‘if’s’ or ‘when’. It’s just there, and always. No beginning, no end. It’s the condition-less state of the heart. Not a feeling that comes and goes at the whim of the emotions. It is there in our heart, a part of our heart…eventually grafting itself into each limb and cell of our bodies. Love changes our brain, the way we move and talk. Love lives in our spirit and graces us with its presence each day, until death.

    To say “I love you, but….” is to say, “I did not love you at all”.

    I say this to you now: I love you, with no beginning, no end. I love you as you have become an extra necessary organ in my body. I love you as only a girl could love a boy. Without fear. Without expectations. Wanting nothing in return, except that you allow me to keep you here in my heart, that I may always know your strength, your eyes, and your spirit that gave me freedom and let me fly.”
    Jamie Weise

    Lisa Kleypas
    “I no longer believed in the idea of soul mates, or love at first sight. But I was beginning to believe that a very few times in your life, if you were lucky, you might meet someone who was exactly right for you. Not because he was perfect, or because you were, but because your combined flaws were arranged in a way that allowed two separate beings to hinge together.”
    Lisa Kleypas, Blue-Eyed Devil

    “A guy and a girl can be just friends, but at one point or another, they will fall for each other...Maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe forever”
    Dave Matthews Band

    Candace Bushnell
    “Man may have discovered fire, but women discovered how to play with it.”
    Candace Bushnell, Sex and the City

    Henry Rollins
    “It hurts to let go. Sometimes it seems the harder you try to hold on to something or someone the more it wants to get away. You feel like some kind of criminal for having felt, for having wanted. For having wanted to be wanted. It confuses you, because you think that your feelings were wrong and it makes you feel so small because it's so hard to keep it inside when you let it out and it doesn't coma back. You're left so alone that you can't explain. Damn, there's nothing like that, is there? I've been there and you have too. You're nodding your head.”
    Henry Rollins, The Portable Henry Rollins

    Taylor Swift

    Susane Colasanti
    “If a girl starts out all casual with a guy and she doesn't tell him that she wants a relationship, it will never become a relationship. If you give the guy the impression that casual is okay with you, that's all he'll ever want. Be straight with him from the start. If he gets scared and runs away, he wasn't right for you.”
    Susane Colasanti, Waiting for You

    Richelle Mead
    “Sometimes you wake up from a dream. Sometimes you wake up in a dream. And sometimes, every once in a while, you wake up in someone else's dream. ”
    Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues

    Fannie Flagg
    “I wonder how many people don't get the one they want, but end up with the one they're supposed to be with.”
    Fannie Flagg, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe

    Nicholas Sparks
    “I'd love to, she finally said,"on one condition."
    I steadied myself, hoping it wasn't something too awful.
    "Yes?"
    "You have to promise that you won't fall in love with me."
    I knew she was kidding me by the way she laughed, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
    Sometimes, I had to admit, Jamie had a pretty good sense of humor.
    I smiled and gave her my word.”
    Nicholas Sparks

    “Don't kiss me like a woman if you're going to treat me like a child.”
    Jeaniene Frost, Halfway to the Grave

    Wendelin Van Draanen
    “You can't dwell on what might have been...and it's not fair to condemn him for something he hasn't done.”
    Wendelin Van Draanen, Flipped

    Sylvia Plath
    “Yes, I was infatuated with you: I am still. No one has ever heightened such a keen capacity of physical sensation in me. I cut you out because I couldn't stand being a passing fancy. Before I give my body, I must give my thoughts, my mind, my dreams. And you weren't having any of those.”
    Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
