“Saba used to say there was a difference between bravery and courage. Bravery was doing something dangerous without thinking. Courage was walking into danger, knowing full well the risks.”
― Gayle Forman, Just One Year

“Life can’t be divided into chapters...only minutes. The events of your life are all crammed together one minute right after the other without any time lapses or blank pages or chapter breaks because no matter what happens life just keeps going and moving forward and words keep flowing and truths keep spewing whether you like it or not and life never lets you pause and just catch your fucking breath.

I need one of those chapter breaks. I just want to catch my breath, but I have no idea how.”
― Colleen Hoover, Hopeless

“Sleep now a little while
Till within our dreams we wake
Unfolding our Forever
If only for Never’s sake

And take me to your ever after
Let’s hide behind our eyes
Together pour through that door
Where autumn never dies

And I’ll sift my sands to your side
Before we slip away
Before we’re little more than silt
Beneath the rocking waves

And side by side we’ll fight the tide
That sweeps in to take us down
And hand in hand we’ll both withstand
Even as we drown.”
― Kelly Creagh, Enshadowed

“I want to care, but I don't. I look at you and all I feel is tired. I walk through school and all I want to do is leave. I wake up in the morning and don't know why I'm here. I feel like I'm not real.”
― Elizabeth Scott, Miracle
