1 " Your memories don't make you who you are. "
― Dan Krokos , False Memory (False Memory, #1)
2 " He stops pacing. 'I know, Miranda, I did it because I—' 'Stop! Don't say it. I don't want to hear you say it.' 'I have to say it,' Noah says. 'No, you don't.' If I hear him say the word love, I don't know what I'll do. I still have my gun. Maybe one day I can forgive him, but all chance of that goes out the window if he claims he did it for love. If you love someone, the idea is respect them enough to trust them. Not to take away their freedom. Their life. "

5 " His pulse races under my palms. "Was there ever. . .between us, was there ever something?" I say.He shakes his head. "Just for me. But you were always Noah's.""I don't want to be."He doesn't say anything. "
6 " I don't know who I am, but I might be a badass. "
7 " You didn't break my nose,” he says.“Too bad.”“No, that’s good,” he says. “Because I would've broken yours.”“You’d hit a girl?”“We fight all the time. "
8 " That's what people do when they're in love. They make crazy decisions. They do what they think is best, and sometimes it turns out to be a mistake. "
9 " Why are you so good to me Peter?"My head tilts back against the tree. My eyes are too heavy to keep open. I feel the vague sensation of his hands sliding under me, weightlessness as he lifts me up and settles me against his broad chest.On the edge of sleep, I hear him whisper,"That's for me to know and you to never find out. "
