General Quotes
Maybe it wasn’t so wrong after all. If you didn’t let a man mean too much you wouldn’t be too hurt when he went away. But that didn’t mean you had to stop living, too. Even if you didn’t jump off a cliff there were other ways to end your life.
Lovers and Dreams by Nora Roberts
Maybe it was always true that someone had more power in any relationship and the person who had less power would always feel a little insecure, a little frayed around the edges.
Tainted Love by Melody Mayer

It’s difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams, and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It’s a wonder I haven’t abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

It’s a fairly accurate portrait of me at eighteen, minus a few quirks like reckless driving and eating binges. It’s accurate but it isn’t profound.
Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen
Isn’t it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive. It’s such an interesting world. It wouldn’t be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There’d be no scope for imagination then, would there?

Is there a law somewhere that states you can’t fall in love until a reasonable, rational period of time has passed during which the parties will socialize, communicate, and, if possible, engaged in sexual intercourse in order to assure compatibility? If there is, and it worked, explain the divorce rate.
Midnight Bayou by Nora Roberts
In movies, there are always misunderstandings before the hero and heroine get together. He seems like he hates her, she thinks she hates him, he maybe courts her a little, they connect for a minute, then she misunderstands something and hates him again for most of the movie despite various appealing things he does to try to win her. Or it’s the other way around – he seems like he hates her because he misunderstands something she did and then it turns out they were wrong. They love each other madly. And that’s the end.
The Boyfriend List by E. Lockhart
I’ll try and be what he loves to call me, “a little woman,” and not be rough and wild; but do my duty here instead of wanting to be somewhere else.
Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

I’m standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff. I mean, if they’re running and they don’t look where they’re going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That’s all I’d do all day. I’d just be the catcher in the rye and all.
The Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger
I’m one of those people who other people like but never remember.
Ask Again Later by Jill A. Davis
I’m just scared. Nobody’s ever looked at me the way you just did.
Gossip Girl by Cecily von Ziegesar
I’d say my biggest fear is that this thing with Michael is about sex, that this is really just sexual attraction and nothing more. And fine, you know, because that can be fun, too, but if I’m worried it’s all about sex I guess what I’m really worried about is that for me it only partially has to do with sex, that for me it’s about caring for him. So why risk giving into that just to have him leave me?
Girls’ Poker Night by Jill A. Davis
I’d never looked into a guy’s eyes and felt so completely seen before, like he was scrolling through every memory I had and deciding whether or not to keep them for his own. I wanted to give them to him and somehow wanted to run screaming from him at the same time.
