2 " The truth is, I’m torn between wanting to tear her clothes off and fuck her senseless or wanting to sit somewhere quiet and talk to her the whole night. It’s a curious war I’m fighting, but I’d be happy with either victory "
3 " Home isn’t a country or a place … It’s where you belong”. "
4 " I love this place, too, it’s imprinted on me as much as you are. But in the end, it’s still for you. I love you. I’m in love with you. I’m not going home. You are my home. I’m staying with you. "
5 " We’re so undefined, so fleeting and fragile and new, but I don’t think he could belong to anyone else, and I couldn’t belong to anyone else but him. "
6 " You can only ignore the call so many times before you know it’s time to go. Life is spreading her legs for me.I’m going in. "

8 " Gemma.” His voice is rough and heated. “Some people may expect nothing. Most people expect something. But you, you, should expect everything. "
9 " Take this opportunity … and find what makes you happy. You may never get that chance again. Time waits for no one. "
10 " Everything has a new meaning with you. "

13 " I believe,” I say slowly, “that everyone you meet leaves an imprint on you. By the end of your life, that imprint has shaped who you are and what life you’ve lived. So, I guess it’s kind of the same thing. "
14 " if you find that person who makes you feel like everything going forward is worth living, hold on to her. "

16 " I am in love with Joshua Miles, and it’s bringing me to life. It’s killing me. It’s making me crazy. I think I love that part, too. It twists and loops around us, tying us to one another. It steals my thoughts and makes me think of him. It steals my hands and makes me touch his skin. It’s brutal and kind and sharp and soft and warm and cold and freeing and imprisoning. It’s an incognito imposter taking over my world, spreading itself like a disease. "
17 " I never understood why anyone would choose to go out into the world without armor on, to feel all the stabs, punches, and stings of life. That’s not how I wanted to live. I wanted to be free from pain, from loss, from broken dreams. "

19 " It's scary, opening yourself up to be hurt, I know. But even if you don't, you'll hurt anyway. "
20 " That's the beauty of traveling. Haven't you caught on yet? There are no strangers here, just friends you haven't met yet. "
