• “How to murder someone: kiss them once and never again."
• “Ancient lovers believed a kiss would literally unite their souls, because the spirit was said to be carried in one’s breath."
• “I used to build dreams about you.“
• “You’re cruel and now you’re just fixing your heart by taking pieces of mine. i have to let you go because i haven’t got much love left and i need it to be able to forgive and forget you.“
• “I want a tattoo of the first morning we woke up together. i want the memory to hurt.“
• "I think that the only reason people hold onto memories so tight is because memories are the only things that don't change; when everybody else does."
• "Since desire always goes towards that which is our direct opposite, it forces us to love that which will make us suffer."
• "I missed you every hour. And you know what the worst part was? It caught me completely by surprise. I’d catch myself just walking around to find you, not for any reason, just out of habit, because I’d seen something that I wanted to tell you about or because I wanted to hear your voice. And then I’d realize that you weren't there anymore, and every time, every single time, it was like having the wind knocked out of me."
• "I would like you to stay and talk with me but I don’t want you to feel that you have to just because I’m here."
• "When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake, and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots are become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the desire to mate every second of the day. It is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every part of your body. No… don’t blush. I am telling you some truths. For that is just being in love; which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over, when being in love has burned away."
• “I won’t kiss you. It might get to be a habit and I can’t get rid of habits."
• "A thousand moments that I had just taken for granted ― mostly because I had assumed that there would be a thousand more."
• "Take love, multiply it by infinity and take it to the depths of forever. And you still have only a glimpse of how I feel for you."
• "This is an apology letter to the both of us for how long it took me to let things go."
• “I will not ask you to stay. If you must go, go. I don’t need you. I will breathe (carefully) without you. I will smile (slowly) without you. I will go on (eventually) without you. I’d be much happier, if you chose to not leave. But if you must let go, let go and I will too. And hopefully one day, I will teach my heart to not break, whenever everyday thoughts. Lead to you. I'm afraid I'm much too weak, I'm afraid we'll always be. A book with the end pages ripped out. I'm afraid I'll always wonder, Always ache, Always place everyone second to you. I'm afraid I'll always love you. But I will not ask you to stay."
