Shame (Ruin, #3) QUOTES

1 " Mi aveva incoraggiata a fidarmi di lui, mi aveva fatta innamorare, consapevole che alla fine sarei rimasta scottata.
Eppure aveva permesso che avvenisse. Quello non era amore. L’amore non ti delude, l’amore ti fa avere fiducia nell’altro e in un lieto fine. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

2 " —Demostrando un punto. —Me desvestí hasta que estuve completamente
desnudo—. No puedo ocultarme de ti. —Levanté los brazos en el aire—. Sería imposible
ocultar la reacción de mi cuerpo... con sólo mirar... estoy así. Con sólo mirarte, cada
músculo individual en mi cuerpo se tensa. Sólo viendo tu sonrisa, concentrándome en
aquellos ojos azules, lo olvido todo menos a ti. Tu sabor, tus labios, tu boca. —Me moví
hacia el piso—. Mi cuerpo no puede mentir... —La besé suavemente—. Y créeme cuando
digo que no te miento con mis palabras. Aquí... —Toqué su pecho—, eres hermosa. Aquí...
—acaricié su mejilla—, es imposible no mirarte. Para mí eres perfecta.

3 " I was pretty sure that’s how you know you’re falling for someone — when you want the good and bad, when you want everything, regardless of how horrible, how dark. You want it all, because at the end of the day, it’s still them. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

4 " Unfortunately, the thing about running, the thing about trying to start over — eventually that hope is dashed by your past coming up to greet you like the fires of hell "

5 " In the morning things will look better? Is that what else you were going to say?”
… “Things rarely look better in the morning, but at least you have more energy to deal with them. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

6 " The thing about your past… it never stays there. We just think it does until the time comes for it to reveal itself in all its gory shame. And there’s nothing, absolutely nothing a person can do, but watch "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

7 " But that’s the thing about choices; you don’t regret them until after they’ve been made. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

8 " You don’t know my pain. You don’t know my story. You don’t know the hope I’ve held in my heart for years. Hope that one day I would be different. Hope that one day the person I chose to give my heart to would see me as beautiful, pure, like the snow. And wouldn’t look at the darkness and walk in the other direction. "

9 " Because that’s the thing about madness… it breeds brilliance "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

10 " I'm talking about a different type of madness. The kind that follows you into your dreams, only to haunt you when you’re awake. A madness that sucks joy out of every good thing in life and makes you feel guilty about smiling. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

11 " Laughter meant healing.

Healing was more than just being cured of cancer or finding the one who actually saw you for you. It was more than getting over your past, embracing your future. Healing’s waking up every day when you’d rather stay in bed; healing’s when you smile instead of cry; healing’s when you can hold your head high, despite what demons try to pull it down. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

12 " Lisa, if I could take that hurt from you and carry it for the rest of my life, I would. I know that’s not how life works, but know I’d do it in an instant. If I could take all that guilt and shame? There would be no hesitation, but because I can’t, at least let me hold your hand while you walk through it. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

13 " It’s in the fight that you prove your worth. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

14 " Knowing that what’s in your head might not be right — but not having any idea how to fix it. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

15 " Fear is a tool not a weakness "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

16 " She looked lost. Not the type of lost you see on people when they’re in a new city; the type of lost you see on a little kid when she thinks her parents left her at the store. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

17 " Love isn’t the expectation that eventually you’ll end up in heartache; it’s the expectation that you can fully trust another human being with everything and still hope for a happy ending. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

18 " Because anger has too many faces, too many masks. This type of anger is the kind you don’t recognize until it’s too late "

― Rachel Van Dyken , Shame (Ruin, #3)

19 " —No quiero que seas el caballero.
—Sí, pero, Lisa, creo que eso es exactamente lo que realmente anhelas. No es la
adrenalina rápida del alma que late con fuerza frente a la chimenea, sino el tipo de amor
que dura por horas... días. El tipo que experimentas solamente una vez en la vida, sólo
cuando te entregas a ti mismo realmente por alguien más. Es lo que yo quiero contigo.

20 " No naces con miedo... naces con amor. El miedo se desarrolla mientras te das cuenta de que el mundo no es tan perfecto como habías pensado. El miedo es un hábito aprendido, y yo era su alumna.
~Lisa
