1 " If the sun rises tomorrow, we’ll watch it together. "
― Caroline Peckham , Dead Man's Isle (The Harlequin Crew #2)
2 " Because the world is bad and dark, but it’s good and light too. Maybe the good redeems it just enough, even if that good isn’t meant for me. "
3 " You can’t stop living life just because you know a storm’s coming, "
4 " I just wished I’d been able to see the timer running down back then so I could have made more out of each moment, tasted the sea salt on my lips a little longer, laughed fuller and harder, taken more photos, captured more of the sweetness to help counter the bitterness that had been coming. I knew regrets were pointless, but I had them all the same. I guess you never realise how bright the day is until the rain comes. "
5 " Life might wanna fuck me over, but that doesn't mean it can't get me off while railing me like I'm a good little whore. "
6 " Life might like giving me lemons, but I was a fucking pro at squirting the juice in someone else's eyes and I wasn’t gonna stop squeezing now. *** "
7 " And the fact that she probably despised me again which was a hard, jagged pill to swallow. Like one of those round, uncoated pain killer tablets that always got stuck in your throat – who made that shit anyway? Satan? "
8 " think I’m still trying to be a kid in a world full of adults and no one wants to play anymore. "
9 " Love is obsession. Love’s the thing you can’t control, that binds you to someone whether they want you or not. It’s a gift to those who feel it towards each other, and the most excruciating curse when it’s unrequited. "
