Dear Evan Hansen Quotes

“Burning is the right way to paint it. You feel yourself getting so hot, day after day. Hotter and hotter. It gets to be too much. Even for stars. At some point they fizzle out or explode. Cease to be. But if you're looking up at the sky, you don't see it that way. You think those stars are still there. Some aren't. Some are already gone. Long gone. I guess, now, so am I.”
― Val Emmich, Dear Evan Hansen

“When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?”

― Val Emmich, Dear Evan Hansen

“If the pain is in you, it’s in you. It follows you everywhere. Can’t outrun it. Can’t erase it. Can’t push it away; it only comes back. The way I’ve been thinking, after all that’s happened, maybe there’s only one way to survive it. You have to let it in. Let it hurt you. And don’t wait. It’ll reach you eventually. Might as well be now.”
― Val Emmich, Dear Evan Hansen

“Kinky!”
― Steven Levenson, Dear Evan Hansen

e a verdadeira queda começa quando acordo.”
