- "So this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be."
- "We accept the love we think we deserve."
- "Sometimes people use thought to not participate in life."
- "I am very interested and fascinated by how everyone loves each other, but no one really likes each other."
- "I really think that everyone should have water colors, magnetic poetry, and a harmonica."
- "I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you exist."
- "The people in the photographs always seem a lot happier than you are."
- Sometimes, I look outside and think that a lot of other people have seen this snow before. Just like I think a lot of other people have read these books before. And listened to those songs. I wonder how they feel tonight."
- "It was the kind of kiss that made me know that I was never so happy in my whole life."
- "I just wish that God or someone would just tell me what's wrong with me. Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense. To make this all go away. And disappear. I know that's wrong because it's my responsibility, and I know that things get worse before they get better, but this is a worse that feels too big."
- "It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder. What if they need the arms or something like that? You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can't. You have to do things."
- "If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don't want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it too."
- "...And in that moment, I swear we were infinite."
- "Please believe that things are good with me, and even when they’re not, they will be soon enough. "
