“I was alive. I burned brightly. And then I died, but not really. Because someone like me cannot, will not, die like everyone else. I linger like the legends of the Blue Hole. I will always be here, in the offerings and people I left behind.”
― Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

“For once, I don’t want to be anyone but Theodore Finch, the boy she sees. He understands what it is to be elegant and euphoric and a hundred different people, most of them flawed and stupid, part asshole, part screwup, part freak, a boy who wants to be easy for the folks around him so that he doesn’t worry them and, most of all, easy for himself. A boy who belongs—here in the world, here in his own skin. He is exactly who I want to be and what I want my epitaph to say: The Boy Violet Markey Loves.”
― Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

“You make me happy, whenever you're around I'm safe inside your smile.

You make me handsome, whenever I feel my nose just seems a bit too round.

You make me special, and God knows I've longed to be that kind of guy to have around.

You make me love you, and that could be the greatest thing my heart was ever fit to do.”
― Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

“Als je aan het einde van je leven meer gekwetst bent dan dat je gekwetst hebt, maakt dat je dan een verliezer?”
