“Are you going to kill me?’ ‘Don’t be an idiot. If I wanted to kill you I wouldn’t have monologued for an hour, I would’ve just done it.”
― Maggie Tokuda-Hall, Squad

“Pretty fucking tragic twist of fate, but you don’t seem to remember that we first met years ago. An issue, since I remember a little too well. I like no one, absolutely no one, but I liked you from the start. I liked you when I didn’t know you, and now that I do know you it’s only gotten worse. Sometimes, often, always, I think about you before falling asleep. Then I dream of you, and when I wake up my head’s still there, stuck on something funny, beautiful, filthy, intelligent that’s all about you. It’s been going on for a while, longer than you think, longer than you can imagine, and I should have told you, but I have this impression, this certainty that you’re half a second from running away, that I should give you enough reasons to stay. Is there anything I can do for you? I’ll take you grocery shopping and fill your fridge when we’re back home. Buy you a new bike and a case of decent reagent and that sludge you drink. Kill the people who made you cry. Is there something you need? Name it. It’s yours. If I have it, it’s yours.”
― Ali Hazelwood, The Love Hypothesis

“Los grandes cambios a menudo empiezan con el más débil de los susurros, elevado a un clamor ensordecedor por todas las personas que comparten esa idea.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“A veces, pensó, dentro de aquella casa en medio de un mar cerúleo, podías elegir la vida que querías vivir.
Y, si eras una persona con suerte, a veces esa vida te elegía a ti.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea
