I don't want to be somebody's crush. If somebody likes me, I... - Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

"please believe that things are good with me, and even when they're not, they will be soon enough. And i will always believe the same about you."

"And I thought that all those little kids are going to grow up someday. And all of those little kids are going to do the things that we do. And they will all kiss someone someday. But for now, sledding is enough. I think it would be great if sledding were always enough, but it isn't."

"It's just that I don't want to be somebody's crush. If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don't want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it too."

"It's much easier to not know things sometimes. Things change and friends leave. And life doesn't stop for anybody."

"It's strange because sometimes, I read a book, and I think I am the people in the book."
