Lauren Oliver
“I used to lie here like this all summer long,' I tell her. 'I'd come up here and just stare at the sky.'
She rolls over on her back so she's staring up as well. 'Bet this view hasn't changed much, has it?'
What she says is so simple i almost laugh. She's right, of course. 'No. This looks exactly the same.'
I suppose that's the secret, If you're ever wishing for things to go back to the way they were. You just have to look up.”
Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

Kazuo Ishiguro
“What is pertinent is the calmness of beauty, its sense of restraint. It is as though the land knows of its own beauty, its own greatness, and feels no need to shout it.”
Kazuo Ishiguro, The Remains of the Day

Kazuo Ishiguro
“After all, what can we ever gain in forever looking back and blaming ourselves if our lives have not turned out quite as we might have wished?”
Kazuo Ishiguro, The Remains of the Day

Lauren Oliver
“Be honest: Are you surprised that I didn't realize sooner? Are you surprised that it took me so long to even /think/ the word -- death? Dying? Dead?

Do you think I was being stupid? Naive?

Try not to judge. Remember that we're the same, you and me.

I thought I would live forever too.”
Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

Kazuo Ishiguro
“Indeed — why should I not admit it? — in that moment, my heart was breaking.”
Kazuo Ishiguro, The Remains of the Day
