Ann Brashares, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

"You know what the secret is? It's so simple. We love one another. We're nice to one another. Do you know how rare that is? - Carmen"

"Maybe the truth is, there's a little bit of loser in all of us. Being happy isn't having everything in your life be perfect. Maybe it's about stringing together all the little things."

"Time is what keeps things from happening all at once."
