Romance Quote by Sarah Dessen — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Nah," I said. "But if it does, just tell him I said to get back on the bike.”

“The future was one thing that could never be broken, because it had not yet had the chance to be anything.”

“That first love. And the first one who breaks your heart. For me, they just happen to be the same person.”

“Yeah. I mean, acknowledging is easy. Something happened or it didn't. But understanding... that's where things get sticky.”

“I knew, in the silence that followed, that anything could happen here. It might be too late: again, I might have missed my chance. But I would at least know I tried, that I took my heart and extended my hand, whatever the outcome.”

“If someone is really close with you, your getting upset or them getting upset is okay, and they don’t change because of it. It’s just part of the relationship. It happens. You deal with it.”

“Is that blood around Fearghas’s mouth?”

“One doesn't fall into love... one digs a hole for himself to trip... claiming he didn't see it coming”

“Love me?” Madeline asked with a faint smile.”

“The first rule in the book of love is acceptance.”

“I don’t want you.”

“I felt overwhelmed. I didn’t expect a first kiss to be so…life altering. In a few brief moments, the rule book of my universe had been rewritten. Suddenly I was a brand new person. I was as fragile as a newborn, but instead of the doctor placing me in my mother’s arms, he’d put me in Ren’s. What would Ren do with me? Would he draw me near, soothe me, and teach me about this new world or would he reject me and tell the doctor there must be some mistake. There was no way to know. What a breakable and delicate thing a heart was, no wonder I’d kept mine locked away.”
