“Maybe its like you said before, all of us being cracked open. Like each of us starts out as a watertight vessel. And then things happen - these people leave us, or don’t love us, or don’t get us, or we don’t get them, and we lose and fail and hurt one another. And the vessel starts to crack in places. And I mean, yeah once the vessel cracks open, the end becomes inevitable. Once it starts to rain inside the Osprey, it will never be remodeled. But there is all this time between when the cracks start to open up and when we finally fall apart. And its only that time that we see one another, because we see out of ourselves through our cracks and into others through theirs. When did we see each other face to face? Not until you saw into my cracks and I saw into yours. Before that we were just looking at ideas of each other, like looking at your window shade, but never seeing inside. But once the vessel cracks, the light can get in. The light can get out.”

“No creo en el fracaso porque al decir que hemos fracasado, ya estamos admitiendo que lo hemos intentado. Y todo el que lo intenta no fracasa. Los que fracasan, en mi opinión, son los que ni siquiera lo intentan. Los que se quedan sentados en el sofá y se quejan y gimotean y esperan que el mundo cambie para ellos.”
― Sarah Dessen, Keeping the Moon

“What about the rest of your life?"
She shrugged. "What about it?"
"Aren't you worried about, like, forever?"
"Forever is composed of nows," she says.”
