101 " I had a dream that I was under my skin,lost and wandering around my body. "
― Courtney Peppernell , Pillow Thoughts (Pillow Thoughts #1)
102 " I saw an angel onceBut she had lost her wingsI saw an angel onceShe seemed broken of all thingsI saw an angel onceAnd asked her why she was sadThe angel looked at me and said" Because the world has gone mad "
103 " I think that if you let meI'd treat you like the sky.I'd join up all your insecuritiesbundle all your flawsinto a new constellationand search for it endlessly.I know you don't see yourselfthe way I see youand you will still arguewhen I call you beautiful.But all the things you can't stand about yourselfare all the things I can'tgo a day without.I think if you let meI'd build an observatoryjust to show youthat all the stars in the universe will never shine as brightas you. "
104 " They say there’s beauty in sadness but I don’t think so "
105 " You are a lonely sailboat, afraid of drowning where no one will see. Yet you forget you have never been alone, not while you have the sea. "
106 " Love makes us both happy and sad and there is not a soul alive that has been able to understand why. "
107 " I knew what I was going to say; I had rehearsed my goodbye over and over again, but you left without a word. "
108 " What am I going to do with all these things if I can never pack them away? "
109 " It’s okay to close some doors; hell, it’s even okay to lock them. "
110 " Flowers on Your Doorstep You deserve flowers on your doorstep and coffee in the morning. You deserve notes left on your dashboard and ice cream sundaes at 3 a.m. You deserve honesty every day and to be kissed every hour. You deserve to be reminded how beautiful you are. And if you let me, I’ll show you every day. I promise. "
111 " When you take a lover who uncovers all your flaws, listens to the very essence of who you are, and embraces you rather than judges you, hold onto this love for a lifetime, as you will never find a love quite as pure. "
112 " You deserve to be reminded how beautiful you are. And if you let me, I'll show you every day. "
113 " But what else am I supposed to do when your hair is soft "
114 " There is so much noiseThe city never sleepsAnd I long for just one day everything is soquietYou and I could hear the clouds move "
115 " But your love is not with you, not tomorrow or the day after or the next. So youfind your lover in your dreams, and this is why you are always smiling in thedark, right before you sleep "
116 " We don’t speak with words. We speak with a gentle brushing of shoulders, a look across the room, a door opened, a smile as we pass each other, a racing heart as I see you coming up the driveway. There is power in silence, and while we don’t say a word, we both know we only want each other. "
117 " There are too many waysto feel alone, and not enough places to fall in love. "
118 " Just listen to her. Listen to her heart, her mind, her body and her soul. And if youare lucky enough to find a soul that is beautiful, make sure you tell her. "
119 " In the moments you feel alone and every mountain is too great for all the answers left unknown and convinced it is always too late. There is happiness in this lifetime one day these troubles will fade all your strength is in the skyline no matter how heavy your heart weighs. And some days it seems hope and despair take turns but despite all our sadness the sun always returns. "
120 " It makes me sad, truly, that you were made to feel as though you were annoying or stupid or that you aren't beautiful when you talk about the things you love or that you aren't interesting at 7 p.m. or 5 a.m. Your existence is important. You are important. "
