“You don’t know what goes on in anyone’s life but your own. And when you mess with one part of a person’s life, you’re not messing with just that part. Unfortunately, you can’t be that precise and selective. When you mess with one part of a person’s life, you’re messing with their entire life. Everything. . . affects everything.”
― Jay Asher, Thirteen Reasons Why

“I learned hatred early on as a child. That was the lesson of my youth. Now I realize that children don’t know the consequences of their actions. This is true about adults as well, who really aren’t any better. I have forsaken hatred now, deciding that love is a much better path. With love comes forgiveness and with forgiveness comes healing.”
― John Kaniecki

“You get a strange feeling when you're about to leave a place, I told him, like you'll not only miss the people you love but you'll miss the person you are now at this time and this place, because you'll never be this way ever again.”
