“The thing about falling is you don't have any control on your way down.”
― Nicola Yoon, The Sun Is Also a Star

“Love didn’t end all at once, no matter how much you needed it to or how inconvenient it was. You couldn’t command love to stop any more than a marriage document could order it to appear. Maybe love had to bleed away a drop at a time until your heart was numb and cold and mostly dead.”
― Mary E. Pearson, The Beauty of Darkness

“Just because you're good at something doesn't mean you have to do it.”
― Matthew Quick, Every Exquisite Thing

“There’s a Japanese phrase that I like: koi no yokan. It doesn’t mean love at first sight. It’s closer to love at second sight. It’s the feeling when you meet someone that you’re going to fall in love with them. Maybe you don’t love them right away, but it’s inevitable that you will.”
― Nicola Yoon, The Sun Is Also a Star
