“I don't like you, Park," she said, sounding for a second like she actually meant it. "I..." - her voice nearly disappeared - "think I live for you."

"I don't think I even breathe when we're not together," she whispered. "Which means, when I see you on Monday morning, it's been like sixty hours since I've taken a breath.

And because I'm so out of control, I can't help myself. I'm not even mine anymore, I'm yours, and what if you decide that you don't want me? How could you want me like I want you?"
He was quiet. He wanted everything she'd just said to be the last thing he heard. He wanted to fall asleep with 'I want you' in his ears.”

“Vuoi davvero restare lì a guardare, in panchina come quelli che non hanno un briciolo di coraggio e che vivono da spettatori per tutto il tempo, osservando con quel pizzico di invidia e amarezza quello che fanno gli altri? E intanto il tempo passa. E quello è uno stronzo che non aspetta, hols. E' risaputo.”
