Poetry Quote by Gary D. Schmidt — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I almost cried. But I didn't, because if you're in seventh grade and you cry while wearing a blue floral cape and yellow tights with white feathers on the butt, you just have to curl up and die somewhere in a dark alley.”

“You can't just skip the boring parts.”

“We returned to our palaces, these Kingdoms, but no longer at ease here in the old dispensation, with an alien people clutching their gods. I should be glad of another death.”

“Just know I am”

“Thinking of you is a poison I drink often.”

“Pero, tú no eres fácil.”

“Thus let me live, unseen, unknown;”

“I will learn your anger. I will lick your sadness.”
