1 " Do I look as pretty as I feel? "
― Alexandra Bracken , Never Fade (The Darkest Minds, #2)
2 " He could silence me, but Rob had no power over my mind "
3 " The question stayed with me every day, through every class, through every Op. I felt its teeth tighten around the back of my neck each time I was dismissed without a second look; it had locked it’s jaws and wouldn’t let me or my conscience go. "
4 " None of this is your fault,' I told him. 'None of it. You aren't responsible for what other people do, good or bad. Everyone is just making the choices they think will help them get by. "
5 " I bet it gets pretty lonely with only your ego for company. "
6 " Hey Boo, I'm in this now, too, & I got a lot of experience playing assholes like they're fucking harps. You need backup, I got you. Stop trying to convince yourself that you're in this alone. "
7 " Are you driving this slow because you have no idea where we're going, or because you're hoping we jump out of the car & put ourselves out of our misery? "
8 " I was looped in on your little romantic quest. The only way to get me out without it looking suspicious was to suggest that I come after you dumb asses, since I supposedly know your crappy personality so well. "
9 " I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be up for hearing about the one-eyed chick "
10 " I know I'm going to shred the skin off your face and turn it into hair ribbons. "
11 " And for the love of God, bitch, don't get stabbed this time! "
12 " The end. But I'm telling you now, if either of you breathe a word -one goddamn word- about Cate, I will come down on you so hard, they'll be naming hurricanes after me for a fucking century. "
13 " This kid has more mood swings than a toddler's birthday party. "
14 " They call you Medusa. One wrong look and your brain turns to stone. "
15 " A mannequin? An unfeeling heartless bitch who feeds on others' misery and is physically incapable of crying, unless it's tears of blood? "
16 " I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be up for hearing about the one-eyed chick. "
17 " Next time it'll be your nuts. "
18 " You are actually the worst person I have ever met,” Chubs said. “And people like you are the reason we have middle fingers. "
19 " I don't want to just see someone's face; I want to know his shadow, too.—Jude "
20 " Life isn’t fair." I said. "It’s taken me a while to get that. It’s always going to disappoint you in some way or another. You’ll make plans, and it’ll push you in another direction. You will love people, and they’ll be taken away no matter how hard you fight to keep them. You’ll try for something and won’t get it. You don’t have to find meaning in it; you don’t have to try to change things. You just have to accept the things that are out of your hands and try to take care of yourself. That’s your job. "
