Don't think or judge, just listen. - Sarah Dessen, Just Listen

"There comes a time in every life when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your heart."

"All I'd ever wanted was to forget. but even when I thought I had, pieces had kept emerging, like bits of wood floating up to the surface that only hint at the shipwreck below."

"Music is a total constant. That's why we have such a strong visceral connection to it, you know? Because a song can take you back instantly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. No matter what else has changed in your or the world, that one song says the same, just like that moment."

"Because this is what happens when you try to run from the past. It just doesn’t catch up, it overtakes … blotting out the future."

"Silence is so freaking loud"
