“August. We were arguing. You want love to be like this every day don't you? 92 degrees even in the shade.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body

“That's when I finally got it. I finally understood. It wasn't the thought that counted. It was the actual execution that mattered, the showing up for somebody. The intent behind it wasn't enough. Not for me. Not anymore. It wasn't enough to know that deep down, he loved me. You had to actually say it to somebody, show them you cared. And he just didn't. Not enough.”
― Jenny Han, It's Not Summer Without You

“Still, there is something to be said for someone seeing your darkest parts and accepting you anyway.”
― Laura Sebastian, Lady Smoke

“I will never look at you in the same way ever 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.”
― Jenny Han, It's Not Summer Without You
