Sylvie

“For so long, it was just my secret. It burned inside me, and I felt like I was carrying something important, something that made me who I was and made me different from everybody else. I took it with me everywhere, and there was never a moment when I wasn't aware of it. It was like I was totally awake, like I could feel every nerve ending in my body. Sometimes my skin would almost hurt from the force of it, that's how strong it was. Like my whole body was buzzing or something. I felt almost, I don't know, noble, like a medieval knight or something, carrying this secret love around with me.”
― Carolyn Parkhurst, Lost and Found

“Some crushes just never went away. They built, instead, into something permanent, obsessive and all consuming.”
― Maya Banks, Rush

“It's like I'm thirteen again and he's my crush. All I'm aware of in this entire roomful of people is him. Where he is, what he's doing, who he's talking to.”
― Sophie Kinsella, Remember Me?

“Butterflies??? Naah.. I feel the whole zoo inside me when I see you..”
