1 " The past is called the past for a reason. If you are constantly looking behind you, your eyes aren't on the road ahead. You don't drive the car that way, so why should you live your life that way? "

2 " I would drink that whole bottle if I knew it wouldn’t get me completely drunk. I miss wine.” “Um, you haven’t had it for one night, and you miss it?”“Clearly, you underestimate my relationship with wine and what I do on the weekends when I’m by myself reading. "
3 " It's important to keep your options open.It's important to live and not get s hung up on the past.The past is called the past for a reason.If you are constantly looking behind you, your eyes aren't on the road ahead.You don't drive a car that way, so why would you live your life that way?. "
4 " Sometimes,when life gets hard, and people make you angry or even when you're scared, the best response is laughter.Laugh in the face of fear, in the face of what scares you the most.It's the only way to get you through the things that bring you to tears. "
5 " It's not a fear.Kacey drank her wine faster."It's a scary movie!" "It's Alice in Wonderland. "
6 " Yes, I'll marry you.....Satan.""Awww, see? We already gave pet names! "
7 " That, he said as he kissed her nose."Is a shame.You should be told you're beautiful every day.Because every day it's true, and every time i see you ,you grow in your beauty.Just because people don't say the words, doesn't mean its any less true,Kace. "

9 " There was a cliff,snow, and I'm pretty sure Benadryl was involved."" Always is." Jake shook his head. "
10 " I love your eyes. But I love mine more.'Cause without them, I won't see yours. "
11 " I think if you love someone, you shouldn't care about her appearance at all. Loving someone because of her physical attribute isn't love. It's either lust or crush. "
12 " Because of you, Kace. Everything I do, everything I’ve done in my life, it’s all because of you. "
13 " When you already love someone, you don't notuce what they look anymore after you get to know them. It's because you don't just see them anymore. You see what are inside. And that is love. "
14 " The way I see it…” She smacked her lips together. “Is if you date a person in the morning, that gives you all day to play. "
15 " Oh gosh, it's moving! It's so gross! Can't you just, like, flex your butt or something?Why, yes. Travis clenched his teeth. Why don't I just clench my butt muscles in hopes that it will shock the spider enough to crawl back into the hellhole it came out of? "
