Amanda’s Quotes

“Perhaps, the problem is not the intensity of your love, but the quality of the people you are loving.”

“You do remember that I came to this hotel to kill myself,” Phoebe says. Saying it aloud makes her feel very far away from that woman who put on her green dress and came here to die—to think of someone being in that much pain. To think of herself walking in here like she had no other option. Phoebe wants to hug that woman, not hurt her.”
― Alison Espach, The Wedding People

“Life is strange. Always thinking that this one thing is going to make you happy. Because then you get it. And then you’re maybe not as happy as you imagined you would be. Because every day is just every day. Like the happiness becomes so big you have no choice but to live inside it. Until you can no longer see or feel it. And so you start to fixate on something else.”
― Alison Espach, The Wedding People
