1 " Sometimes you just meet the right person at the wrong time, I say softly. Yeah, he says. And then you spend every day afterward wishing that time could be rearranged. "
― Josie Silver , One Day in December
2 " Esto es la vida real, donde los corazones terminan pisoteados, magullados y rotos, pero por alguna razón continúan latiendo. "
3 " I'll tell you what's complicated. Standing on your girlfriend's balcony reading a message from your ex about someone else you once kissed. "
4 " You tread lightly through life, but you leave deep footprints that are hard for other people to fill. "
5 " Ladrillo a ladrillo, estoy construyéndome una nueva vida, y me siento bien. "
6 " There comes a point where you have to make the choice to be happy, because being sad for too long is exhausting. "
7 " Sometimes you just meet the right person at the wrong time, "
8 " There’s something about living in a different place that allows you to be whoever you want to be. "
9 " I’m not a bitch though; or maybe I’m just a quiet one inside my own head. Isn’t everyone? "
10 " Despite the fairy-tale snowstorm out there, this isn’t Narnia. This is London, real life, where hearts get kicked and bruised and broken, but somehow they still keep beating. "
11 " That's the thing about flowers, isn't it? They're lush and extravagant and demand your attention, and you think they're the most exquisite thing, but then in the shortest time they're not very lovely at all. They wilt and they turn the water brown, and soon you can't hold on to them any longer. "
12 " I know how painful it can be letting someone you think you love go, but that I don’t believe there’s only one person in the world for each of us. It’s too fanciful, too limiting. "
13 " If anyone ever asks if I've ever fallen in love at first sight, I shall say yes. For one glorious moment on the 21st of December 2006. "
14 " It’s strange, but you never stop caring about someone, even if you don’t want to be with them any more. "
15 " We are a triangle, but our sides have kept changing length. Nothing has ever quite been equal. Perhaps it’s time to learn how to stand on our own, rather than lean on each other. "
16 " We sit there for a while longer, huddled together, watching as the first flakes of snow drift down from the midnight sky. There are no rings to give back, no possessions to tussle over, no kids to hand over in blustery car parks. Just two people, about to part ways. "
17 " told him that there comes a point where you have to make the choice to be happy, because being sad for too long is exhausting. And that one day, you’ll look back, and you’ll not be able to remember exactly what it was you loved about that person. "
18 " Sarah is my best friend in the entire world, and however much and for however long it kills me, I’ll never silently, secretly hold up signs to tell Jack O’Mara, without hope or agenda, that to me he is perfect, and that my wasted heart will always love him. "
19 " into the woman you are today, someone with such incredible poise, someone spectacularly kind; you have a way of making every single person feel like the most important person in the world. "
20 " I'll tell you what I think. Your place isn't somewhere. It's someone. "
