“Meeting your soul mate is like walking into a house you've been in before - you will recognize the furniture, the pictures on the wall, the books on the shelves, the contents of drawers: You could find your way around in the dark if you had to.”

“I watch him throw his head back in supreme happiness, like he's hearing that he gets to choose the colors for all the sunsets from now on.”
― Jandy Nelson, I'll Give You the Sun

“No one tells you how gone gone really is, or how long it lasts.”

“I love you,” I say to him, only it comes out, “Hey.”
“So damn much,” he says back, only it comes out, “Dude.”
He still won’t meet my eyes.”
