Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Try not to resist the changes that come your way. Instead let life live through you. And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come?”
Rumi

Gayle Forman
“Ever hear the one about that dog that spent its life chasing cars and finally caught one—and had no
idea what to do with it?
I’m that dog.”
Gayle Forman, Where She Went

Franz Kafka
“You are at once both the quiet and the confusion of my heart; imagine my heartbeat when you are in this state.”
Franz Kafka, Letters to Felice

Gayle Forman
“I know what I did to you was so wrong, but at the time it also felt so necessary to my survival. I don't know if those two things can both be true but that's how it was. If it's any comfort, after a while, when it didn't feel necessary anymore, when it felt hugely wrong, all I was left with was the magnitude of my mistake, of my missing you.”
Gayle Forman, Where She Went

Gayle Forman
“Quitting’s not hard. Deciding to quit is hard. Once you make that mental leap, the rest is easy.”

“Really? Was that how you quit me?” And just like that, without thinking, without saying it in my head first, without arguing with myself for days, it’s out there.

“So,” she says, as if speaking to an audience under the bridge. “He finally says it.”
Gayle Forman, Where She Went
