“I'd never thought about what my favorite color was before. It never seemed important.
Not until I looked into a pair of ocean blue eyes and realized that perhaps drowning was a beautiful thing.
Not until I looked into a pair of fiery blue eyes and realized that perhaps burning was a painless thing.
Not until I looked into a pair of sky blue eyes and realized that perhaps falling was a peaceful thing.
I'd never thought about what my favorite color was before because I hadn't seen one that was worthy of the title. Until now, that is.
"Blue," I say, my voice low.”
― Lauren Roberts, Powerless

“No one is truly honest. Even if we don't lie to others, we often lie to ourselves. And the word good means different things to different people.”
― Stephanie Garber, Caraval

“She’s not you.”

“What?”

“She. Isn’t. You.”
― Lynn Painter, Better Than the Movies

“Por lo general, cuando uno echa algo de menos, se refiere a las cosas que ya ha vivido; a esas que se quedan grabadas para siempre en tu memoria. Nadie habla de lo que duele echar de menos recuerdos que no existen.”
― Inma Rubiales, El arte de ser nosotros
